So a deepfake of a clean-cut star, say Taylor Swift, in an over-the-top hardcore porn clip would not reasonably be considered real and so could be a legitimate parody.
So it could be argued. But color me skeptical as to whether such an argument would convince any judge. For one, sex tapes of so called clean cut stars have emerged before. For another, most reasonable people would agree that there is a significant difference in how we perceive the realness of text and photorealistic images. People understand that text is inherently a medium in which reality is filtered through the interpretation of the writer. In other words, we’re comfortable with the idea that text is an unreliable medium. Photorealistic images are different in that regard. If people can’t tell that a video is fake by looking, it’s reasonable to expect that they will assume it’s real.
Who's Nailin Palin?
That’s ridiculous. Nobody who knew Sarah Pailin would mistake an actress for her.

"During a segment on whether Palin will run for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, [Fox News] aired a photo of Fey posing as the former Alaska governor." https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/fox-news-mistakenly-airs-image-tina-fey-sarah-palin-segment-article-1.130771 https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/fox-news-mistakenl... So ya, people who did know her image very well did in fact mistake an image of the actor Tina Fey for the real Sarah Palin. It happened several times during the campaign.
- pvg 7y agoNo, they were just sloppy. Wrong graphics were common enough that Fox management had to write grumpy memos about it. You're basing your argument on a hook sentence from a tabloid. Nobody thought they made the mistake because they couldn't tell them apart.
- LyndsySimon 7y agoWhat about the "I can see Russia from my house" line? A ton of people believed (and some likely still believe) that Palin said that. She didn't. Tina Fey said that.
- pvg 7y agoWhat about it? I'm also happy to stipulate former college football all-star Gerald Ford wasn't actually a klutz.

Something tells me we're all going to learn a lot more about the above when somebody deepfakes a presidential incest video.
