And here's an Australian article from [0], quoting some stats and an Australian academic. I couldn't easily find any legal expert analysis, or the text of the proposed bill. Much Australian media paywalls US search engines, so go read the full article:
> Professor Nicola Henry, a socio-legal scholar at RMIT University in Melbourne... ran a survey last year of people who have had fake images shared and found that Australia had far higher rates of victims (3.7%) compared with the global average of 2.2%.
Interestingly, her research also found that men were more likely to report being perpetrators as well as victims of deepfake pornography.
“Unfortunately, there’s not a huge amount of research that’s been done to examine the extent or the impacts of deepfakes or AI-generated image-based abuse,” Professor Henry added.
The government will also bring forward legislation in early August to outlaw the release of private information online with an intent to cause harm, known as doxxing.
