Faking Porn

Taylor Swift makes headlines most weeks - usually for her music and sometimes for her love life. But recently her name has been linked to explicit images, none of which is actually her. The social media giant X, formerly known as Twitter, had to temporarily block searches of her name after deepfake naked images of the pop star went viral on the platform. One post garnered more than 45 million views and stayed live on X for 17 hours before it was taken down.
