Again, the harm comes from dishonesty not the deepfake itself. Calling someone's employer and falsely accusing them of stealing from their past companies or abusing their co-workers achieves the same purpose. If a company fires an employee because of fictional content, the blame lies with the company.

There's a whole culture around treating women (and their bodies) as a corruptive moral threat, which has proven completely intractable. God forbid a real photo leak somehow - the woman still gets fired. That shouldn't happen, but our culture seems to insist on it. > Again, the harm comes from dishonesty not the deepfake itself. This is a weird argument. "The deepfake is a thing; it has no agency and thus is not capable of any harm of its own accord" seems to be akin to the argument of "Guns don't kill people; people kill people". It similarly misses the trees for the forest.
