Does it even matter how realistic someone's fake porn is? Before computers people would cut out peoples faces and paste them onto playboy centerfolds. That sure wasn't perfect, but it didn't stop them from enjoying them enough to go through the trouble. Since perfect or not people aren't going to stop doing what they do, the fact that the fakes have gotten better is only beneficial since it allows for plausible deniability. At this point nobody should trust some random video the same way nobody has been able to trust a random JPG since photoshop became a thing. |

Yes, from a victim impact perspective.

The effort did stop them. The problem wasn't even half as widespread. And those who were doing it were keeping it to themselves, the images weren't being auto-shared to Twitter and the targets tagged.

While there's a qualitative difference in harassment when using media that is either real or fake (clearly or not) the capacity for that media to be used for harassment purposes remains the same.
