The UK government is committed to criminalizing the creation and sharing of sexually explicit deepfake images, addressing alarming growth and harm to victims, particularly women.
Victims Minister Alex Davies-Jones emphasized, 'It is unacceptable that one in three women have been victims of online abuse.' She urges action to prevent online victimization.
Baroness Jones highlighted, 'With these new measures, we're sending an unequivocal message: creating or sharing these vile images is not only unacceptable but criminal.'
The Justice Ministry clarified that new offences will apply to adults, covering deepfake images, while existing laws already protect children from such offenses.
