Labour to crack down on deepfakes and sharing of illicit intimate images
Ministers are to crack down on sexually explicit deepfake images, as the practice will become a criminal offence.
Those who take intimate images of other people without their consent, or who install equipment to take these pictures, could meanwhile face up to two years behind bars under new offences.
Justice minister Alex Davies-Jones said perpetrators of the new offences would “face the full force of the law”.
