Reddit Bans Deep Fake Porn Communities

When we first read about fake celebrity porn created using advanced software that utilized machine learning, we were a little skeptical about the morality of it all. These videos, where famous faces are imposed on the bodies of adult performers, are known as deep fakes around the internet and are causing quite a bit of debate.

With the mainstream porn industry rapidly becoming more accepted it’s not surprising the controversial deep fakes were quickly banned from the Pornhub Network. When Reddit followed suit fans of the genre were left wondering what the big deal is.

Proponents of deep fakes say the videos are created using freely available software and are not illegal in any way. However, people with empathy were quick to point out that celebrities are people and splicing their faces into porn is a violation of their privacy, even if it isn’t their genitals being shown.

Add the fact that anybody with a lawyer can threaten with a DMCA violation and it’s all the more reason for major pornography providers to ban the computer-generated fuck flicks.

Being obsessed with celebrities is certainly nothing new and knowing there’s someone out there masturbating to a picture of your feet is one of the consequences of being famous. However, when you alter hardcore pornography to make it look like someone else is getting fucked things get a little bit more complicated.

Before I get off my high horse I want to point out that I did watch a lot of deep fakes before they were removed from my favorite websites. They’re intriguing and a testament to how advanced machine learning software has become. Still, it’s not something I would really masturbate to.

Fake celebrity porn has been on the internet about as long as regular porn and, like deep fakes, it’s fun to look at but more of a novelty. As far as erotic entertainment goes it’s just not as satisfying as regular porn.

At any rate it’s way easier to just masturbate to a porn start that looks like your favorite celebrity. Usually these professional adult performers are aware of the resemblance and even choose a stage name that rhymes with their Hollywood doppelganger.
