Helen’s world is turned upside down when she discovers that her face has been digitally edited on to images of women in sexually explicit and often violent situations.
Helen shares the impact this deepfake pornography has had on her life and challenges a culture that treats women’s appearance and image as public property while the perpetrators remain anonymous.
Deepfake pornography is an increasingly common form of image-based sexual abuse and in June 2023, an amendment of the online safety bill was announced that criminalises the sharing of deepfake intimate images online.
