"Deepfake abuse is abuse," UNICEF warns

At least 1.2 million kids across 11 countries have had their photos manipulated into sexually explicit deepfakes in the past year. In some places, that's one child in every classroom. 'Nudification' apps are industrializing abuse faster than the law can spell it, and UNICEF's official verdict is blunt: deepfake abuse is abuse, and there is nothing fake about the harm it causes.
