Estonia's Social Democrats Seek Deepfake Criminalization

The party aims to make the nonconsensual creation and distribution of explicit deepfake images a criminal offense. This proposed law targets the misuse of artificial intelligence for malicious purposes. It seeks to protect individuals from digital exploitation and reputational harm. The move signifies a growing concern over the ethical implications of AI-generated content. Estonia is taking steps to address emerging digital threats.
