MODERATORS
By default, creating and publishing "deepfake porn" of a real person constitutes defamation against that person, as it carries the false statement "this person posed for this picture" which is likely to cause that person harm. Often, the intention is to cause harm.
As such, we don't need new laws here. Existing laws against defamation just need to be applied.
