What to expect
Imagine watching yourself on screen. Seeing your own face, but knowing it's not you. Imagine if someone you didn't know, or worse, someone you did know, could put your face anywhere, make it say or do anything. With deepfake technology, they can. And like most things on the internet, it was made for pornography. Whether you're a celebrity, a porn actor, an ex-girlfriend or just a next-door neighbour, it could happen to you.
Journalist and author Michael Grothaus has spent years researching and writing about the dark side of the internet, from online trolls and pornography to sex-trafficking. This is his quest to pull back the curtain on deep fake pornography. Who's making it? Who's affected by it? Who's trying to stop it? And what happens next?
