The bigger problem are not the right matches, but the wrong ones, specially if they are very similar. This should affect far more people than just ex-porn actre

  I'm gladly surprised that "lookalike revenge porn" isn't already a thing (that I know of)

  While false-positives are definitely a problem, why do you think they are a bigger problem? Do you feel the participants in pornography are "fair game" but the others are innocent? In some ways, the current level of inaccuracy could be considered an advantage, because it makes it more likely that there will be resistance. A 100% accurate system strikes me as more dangerous, as it's less likely for politicians or lawmakers to stand up for the victims.

    Despite agreeing with your latter points, there's a reason why shrapnel damage is comparably serious. Although most people who did some porn are most likely not proffesionals, most porn (by volume) is done by people who might even consider your finding part of their CV. So going by sheer numbers alone, there might be so much more cases of false positives. Now, even if it becomes terribly obvious how inaccurate it is, I don't think that matters much when it comes to weaponising it, because people are easily fooled or don't care. As long as you kind find a vid of a girl that looks just like Clara from accounting, you can spread it as a false rumor. Or not even claim it's her; it's just as embarrassing. And that's even assuming you could tell them appart, because the seed of doubt extends the problem to people who didn't even do porn. For comparison think of deepfakes. Everybody knows it's not actually Emma Watson, but I bet she isn't particularly happy about it.
