50 MEPs targeted by deepfake porn, report finds
Original: 50 members of European Parliament targeted by deepfake porn, report says
A report says 50 members of the European Parliament have been targeted by deepfake pornography. The finding has drawn attention to the growing threat of non-consensual synthetic imagery used against politicians, particularly women in public office, and is likely to renew debate in Brussels over regulation of AI-generated content and protections for those targeted.
Why now: The large number of lawmakers affected by sexualised deepfakes has raised fresh alarm over AI abuse and the adequacy of EU rules.
