Female Politicians in the United Kingdom Reportedly Victimized by Purported Deepfake Pornography

July 1, 2024

Deepfake pornography has been used to target several prominent female British politicians, including Angela Rayner, Gillian Keegan, Penny Mordaunt, Priti Patel, Stella Creasy, and Dehenna Davison. These nonconsensual images, some circulating for years, have caused distress and led to police involvement. This incident underscores the need for trustworthy AI governance, particularly in areas where AI can harm individuals and undermine societal trust.
