Isn’t the ubiquitousness of services like this an actual “cure”? If its easy to make those deep fake nudes and everybody has one, then it will not be as scary and shameful, And we can finally get on with our lives with one less thing to stress about? God knows we have enough other things to occupy us anyway.

To a certain degree it is true. More and more people know how photoshopped influencer posts are. Sadly, that is not the majority and even if they knew, they would not care. Those who want to oppress will shame others to exercise power, which is why the mindset of guilty until proven innocent is still prevalent. The cure to it is to reduce the power imbalance in society. How is difficult as violence has many forms and hidden behind a friendly facade (e.g. toxic positivy, forced diversity). So, from my perspective nudity itself is not the problem. As an example where nudity is accepted are nudity beaches in Germany.
