Creating disturbing imagery, especially of the kind that has the potential to uproot someone's life (think, fake nudity, association with known criminals) or in the worst case cause actual riots with real people dying (it's happened way too often that WhatsApp chain letters have caused that, now imagine this with convincing faked imagery!), should not be accessible at the push of a button. There must be placed at least some hurdle, or you'll get 4chan style trolling everywhere.
