I think we can safely assume that any woman, anywhere, who has public photos available and who says something that upsets a man (right or left) will have deepfake porn made of her.

  • I thankfully learned before the Internet was a big thing that pictures, once unleashed, have a habit of popping up again. I can’t even imagine learning that lesson in an age where your pictures circulate the globe unchecked in minutes.

    There are maybe … five? … pictures of me available on the Internet right now. None of them are associated with any of my surviving online identities. There’s a reason for this that predates AI.

    Now? It’s doubly important, IMO, that people do not associate pictures of themselves with any online identity they value.

    Sad world.
