Reply to comment by Gym_Vex in Sharing pornographic deepfakes to be illegal in England and Wales by Shelfrock77

it isn't good, it's silly to try and stop something like this. I can generate illegal content on my local computer offline and nobody would know, try stopping that.

I bet you're convinced you're not a black and white thinker, that you think with nuance, but this comment is precisely what black and white thinking is.

Idk how you get to "it can exist so not worth trying to stop". This exists on a spectrum - what's better, a couple thousand desperate people storing deepfakes on their local computer, or having those deepfakes freely distributed for millions of views. Outside of view count, the former will also slow momentum
