And you may not have paid any attention when the whole technical world of the internet, together with the Greek Police, urged you to do not upload to the internet uncontrollable photos and videos with your face. Especially with the faces of minors.

You need to rethink your online behavior, as what everyone feared has already grown. Unconventional deepfake porn videos, which humiliate and degrade women, now garner millions of views on porn sites. This is a porn video where the face of the protagonist (s) has been replaced with the face of someone else.

But what if the illegal deepfake porn industry turns to people who do not have the financial strength?

There are currently hundreds of thousands of deepfake porn videos, which have been produced with digital tools that often cost no more than $ 100.

And since the cost of production does not require the cost of a protagonist or a protagonist, not even a film crew, do not be surprised if you see your face to such illegal films. Be sure that the more you upload public videos and selfies from your life on social media, the more you risk.

With deepfake porn videos multiplying at a machine gun rate, and with the Greek and European Union legal framework for AI porn still trying to understand what all this means when the illegal deepfake porn industry turns to the woman next door door, which can not be defended, then you will understand what your behavior should have been, so long on the internet.
