That's probably a valid argument, but you should elaborate. What does this particular technology bring to society that balances for deep fakes that can destroy someone's life?
Cryptography can protect people, which sounds like a good thing, but it can protect bad actors, which is a bad thing. One could debate it, but overall it feels like cryptography is useful in many cases. On the other hand, I feel like we would be better off without e.g. blockchain or without e.g. SpaceX making space flights affordable for businesses in a world where the climate crisis may soon destroy us.
What about deep fakes then? What good does it bring that would balance the bad use-cases?
