A woman allegedly used fake nudes to get her daughters cheerleading rival kicked off the squad. This is the first I’m hearing of it but certainly not the last. TGI Grew up in the 90s before social media.

Sickening behavior. She faces up to six months? Charge that bitch with distribution of child pornography if the cheerleaders were underage!
Genuinely curious if that would stick if the porn was of 18+ actors and she deep faked the teens heads onto the AV stars? I mean it should but this might be a grey area where tech has surpassed the law?

Should have read the article first. I did but the charges seem inadequate.

Harassing kids with fake nudes? Telling one to kill themselves?

"The images appeared to show the high school-age girls either naked or in bikinis, drinking alcohol and smoking vape pens, the Philadelphia Inquirer reported, citing an affidavit filed by the Bucks County District Attorney’s Office. "
 
truly terrible human being right there. frightening to think of this technology mixed with the 'at any cost' attitude of some people. there will be an endpoint to this kind of behavior, and not a good one.

I seriously doubt she had the capability to deep fake but rather used MSpaint to copy paste their faces on.

However whatever she did the intent was there.

I remember a few years ago a woman was arrested for trying to kill her daughter's competition. In all seriousness sometimes these cheerleading competitions can get really nasty.

The law is on that one already, it's classified as CP. In the UK anyway, not going to google for a source obvs.

Woke types are going to abuse the shit out of this, given how vindictive they are.

Leak some deep fake videos just to ensure whatever innocent person they want fired from their job will be fired.

We're not prepared to resist large-scale lies coming at us.

Yep the innocence of the internet has been sapped away.

There are more bots than humans online now which is crazy to think and these things are getting more and more sophisticated. One day we will look back at the years just gone by as the "golden era" of the internet.
 
Weird endgame she was going for. Say she's successful and her daughter progresses further, then what? Mum takes out competitor after competitor? Delusional and stupid are not a good combination for motherhood.
