Reply to comment by cy13erpunk in Sharing pornographic deepfakes to be illegal in England and Wales by Shelfrock77

I partially agree with you? I don't think they can police deepfake porn effectively, but I do think they could police harassment with it effectively. Those are two very different situations. Which mostly points out it'd probably be easier to police this under the standards of something like revenge porn.

exactly , just like we dont need different rules/laws for killing someone with a screwdriver vs a hammer vs a gun , its murder , the crime is murder , the method is just a detail/mechanic , its relevant to an extent but the murder is whats important

i guess im arguing intent vs results or something [ethics, kant, whatevs] ; ie the if the crime is harassment/assault/etc then focus on that , the particulars should not be the crime [even if they are relevant to the specific case obvs]

imho the only reason that our societies are concerned about porn is because we have created an arena for it to be 'pornography' in the first place , ie its taboo ; if we didnt have this 'nudity is bad' immature/nonsense running around in our heads then these things wouldnt even be problems in the first place , but i realize thats a relatively unfeasible ask in our world atm
