It occurred to me yesterday that at some point someone will inevitably advocate for the banning of deep fake pornography in their country by creating a porno starring the politicians of their lower house. I reckon it’d be illegal within the week.

Such things already exist… they’re just not popular for obvious reasons.

What are the obvious reasons? I've heard "Fuck Trump" far more often than, say, "Fuck Kate Moss".

Because they’re not usually worthy of fantasy.

Interesting, but I wonder how this would be enforced. I wouldn't be surprised if over half these cases were people who live in entirely different countries. would another country extradite a citizen over this? This has "technically" been possible for centuries so I wonder if there's any case study surrounding this.
