Deepfake Porn: The nightmare of deporting people begins

Deepfake porn non-consensual videos have now been made first in views. And important sites of the genre, redeem their profits.

You may not have heard of them yet deepfake video. 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. Non-consensual deepfake porn videos, which humiliate and degrade women, are now gathering 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.

Hundreds of deepfake porn videos featuring female celebrities, actresses and musicians are uploaded to the world's largest pornographic sites each month. Non-consensual videos garner millions of views, and pornographic companies still fail to remove them from their sites.

Up to 1.000 deepfake videos have been uploaded to porn sites every month as they grew in popularity during 2020, according to figures from ς deepfake Sensity.

Deepfake porn videos are hosted on three of the biggest porn sites, XVideos, Xnxx and xHamster, and have been viewed millions of times. Videos are naturally surrounded by , so these sites can make money. The above sites are ranked within the Top 10 largest websites in the world and each of the above has, or even exceeds, as many visitors as Wikipedia, Amazon and Reddit.

A 30-second video, which appears on all three sites and uses the face of actress Emma Watson, has been viewed more than 23 million times. Xnxx alone has been watched 13 million times. Other deepfake porn videos, which have hundreds of thousands or millions of views, include celebrities such as Natalie Portman, Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift and Kristen Bell.

Deepfake technology exists. Technical intelligence in computers can now work wonders. Sometimes it's fun, like wanting to see Hannibal Lecter in the movie The Silence of the Lambs played by William Dafoe instead of Anthony Hopkins or if you want to see “Only in ” with a splash at him impersonated by Stalone.

Or you may want to see, as in the video below, how the movie "Matrix" would have evolved if Nio had chosen the blue pill instead of the red one.

But as in all things there is a dark side to the issue. Celebrities around the world have become, despite their will, protagonists in deepfake porn movies, but they have the strength to resist. With lawyers, with lawsuits and whatever means justice gives them, they can download fake movies and clear their name. 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 most often cost less than $100. Although in many cases their fidelity is poor, they work, nevertheless, as a perfect tool for promoting the person in question. Even on Pornhub, where deepfake porn is officially prohibited, several new videos of this type appear every day.

And since the cost of paras doesn't require the cost of a star or a star, or even a film crew, don't be surprised if you see your face in these kinds of illegal movies. Be sure that the more you upload public videos and selfies of your life on social media, the more at risk you are.

With deepfake porn videos multiplying at a machine gun rate, and with Greece and the EU legal framework for AI porn still trying to understand what this all means, when the illegal deepfake porn industry turns to of your next door, which cannot be defended, then you will understand what your behavior must have been, so long on the Internet.
