South Korea's women web sleuths fight AI deepfake porn
A group of 23 women digital detectives in South Korea combats the rising threat of AI-generated deepfake pornography, which has become a significant issue alongside existing digital sex crimes. The National Center for Digital Sexual Crime Response has removed 318,000 illegal videos and images last year, assisting over 10,600 victims, primarily women and girls. The centre, established in 2018, also provides counselling and legal support, reflecting a proactive response to the urgent need for protection against digital harassment.
