I think the best way to combat this is to ostracize anyone who participates in it.
Let it be a litmus test to see who is and is not worth hanging out with.
The problem with that plan is there are too many horrible people in the world. They'll just group up and keep going. Horrible people don't stop over mere inconvenience.
Yeah. Those horrible people can have a shitty life surrounded by other horrible people.
Let them be horrible together and we can focus on the people who matter.
Just like Nazis won't go away just because you ignore them, it's the same thing here.
These deepfakes don't disappear. You can ostracize all you like, but that won't stop these from potentially haunting girls for the rest of their lives.
I don't know what the solution is, honestly.
Why should it haunt them? Even if the images were REAL, why should it haunt them? I'm so tired of the puritanical shame women are supposed to feel about their bodies. We all have the same basic equipment. If a guy makes a deep fake, it is HE who should feel shame and humiliation for being a sick pervert. Girls need to be taught this. Band together and laugh these idiots off campus. Name and shame online. Make sure HE will be the one haunted forever.
I don't mean psychologically haunt them, I mean follow them for the rest of their lives affecting things like jobs and relationships. It doesn't matter whether or not they're fake if people don't think they're fake.
Naming and shaming who did this to them will not stop them from being fired from their schoolteaching job in 15 years when the school discovers those images. Do you think "those were fake" is going to be enough for the school corporation if it's in, for example, Arkansas?
The more common this becomes the more easily it will be dismissed.
The solution is for no one to care or make a big deal out of it, they're not real so you shouldn't care.
Welcome to society. First time?
