Governance of Deepfakes: Intersectional Harms
summary
Claims that deepfakes disproportionately harm Black women with little substantive research, citing 84% more likely to face online abuse and a modern surge from ~1,000 synthetic videos in 2018. Concrete tools named: Nudify/clotheoff apps and easy Google/Play Store discoverability. Policy wins and gaps: an Online Safety Act risk‑assessment approach was adopted, and a Deepfakes Accountability Act was drafted for US Congress but stalled; EU directives criminalize intimate-image deepfakes while loopholes leave generator apps unregulated.
