The day I see a believable deepfake of myself doing strange sexual acts is the day that I will stop caring what people think of my sexuality

Also if these people would amass outside your house and demand you'd be tried for blasphemy? Or would just try to kill you? E.g. Pakistan, women, religion and sexuality is a heady mix. Not everybody has the luxury of not caring.

I would also like to point out again that people still developing and productizing deepfake software or tools that underpin them, should take the morally only correct path and stop, and retract their work. It's a considerable net negative on society.

But it’s not, it’s targetted.

So? If its use becomes widespread it won't matter.
