Sharing pornographic deepfakes to be illegal in England and Wales
25 November 2022
A planned new law would make sharing pornographic deepfakes without consent a crime in England and Wales.
Tackling the rise in manipulated images, where a person's face is put on someone else's body, is part of a crackdown on the abuse of intimate pictures in the Online Safety Bill.
This law would also make it easier to charge people with sharing intimate photos without consent.
