Here's What It's Like To See Yourself In A Deepfake Porn Video

Huff Post  

On a busy workday in March, 28-year-old Kate felt an urgent tap on her shoulder. “But when it’s your own face reacting and moving, there’s this panic that you have no control over how people use your image.” At first, deepfake porn almost exclusively featured female celebrities; their television and movie appearances gave video creators plenty of material to work with. She’d never heard of deepfakes until she was featured in one that portrays her having sex, and labels her a “slut.” In the comments section, people have commended the anonymous creator for the video’s believability. “It didn’t get really concerning until the technology and skill level of those putting it together got better — to the point where people might actually believe that was me,” Amy told HuffPost. “I’m constantly thinking, ‘What if someone does something to me again?’” Kate, the woman from Texas whose co-worker found deepfake porn of her, has struggled to move forward too.
