Under the new legislation, anyone who creates a sexually explicit deepfake without consent will face a criminal record and an unlimited fine. They could even face jail if the image is shared more widely.
Minister Laura Farris emphasized that making deepfake sexual images is immoral, often misogynistic, and a crime that degrades and dehumanizes individuals, especially women.
Deborah Joseph of Glamour highlighted how the majority perceives deepfake technology as a threat to women's safety and shared victims' stories to stress the severe impact of such content.
Yvette Cooper supported the new legislation, labeling the act of superimposing sexually explicit content onto someone's image as a violation of autonomy and privacy that can inflict significant harm.
