Daily Stormer The Most Censored Publication in History
“Deep fake porn” being a crime when porn itself is legal is confusing beyond what is even reasonable.
What is the crime? Specifically? What does this even mean?
Women are entitled whores and they deserve a lot worse.

Three years after the 30-year-old South Korean woman received a barrage of online fake images that depicted her nude, she is still being treated for trauma. She struggles to talk with men. Using a mobile phone brings back the nightmare.
“It completely trampled me, even though it wasn’t a direct physical attack on my body,” she said in a phone interview with The Associated Press. She didn’t want her name revealed because of privacy concerns.
Many other South Korean women recently have come forward to share similar stories as South Korea grapples with a deluge of non-consensual, explicit deepfake videos and images that have become much more accessible and easier to create.
It was not until last week that parliament revised a law to make watching or possessing deepfake porn content illegal.
Most suspected perpetrators in South Korea are teenage boys. Observers say the boys target female friends, relatives and acquaintances — also mostly minors — as a prank, out of curiosity or misogyny. The attacks raise serious questions about school programs but also threaten to worsen an already troubled divide between men and women.
Deepfake porn in South Korea gained attention after unconfirmed lists of schools that had victims spread online in August. Many girls and women have hastily removed photos and videos from their Instagram, Facebook and other social media accounts. Thousands of young women have staged protests demanding stronger steps against deepfake porn. Politicians, academics and activists have held forums.
“Teenage (girls) must be feeling uneasy about whether their male classmates are okay. Their mutual trust has been completely shattered,” said Shin Kyung-ah, a sociology professor at South Korea’s Hallym University.
The school lists have not been formally verified, but officials including President Yoon Suk Yeol have confirmed a surge of explicit deepfake content on social media. Police have launched a seven-month crackdown.
Recent attention to the problem has coincided with France’s arrest in August of Pavel Durov, the founder of the messaging app Telegram, over allegations that his platform was used for illicit activities including the distribution of child sexual abuse. South Korea’s telecommunications and broadcast watchdog said Monday that Telegram has pledged to enforce a zero-tolerance policy on illegal deepfake content.
Police say they’ve detained 387 people over alleged deepfake crimes this year, more than 80% of them teenagers. Separately, the Education Ministry says about 800 students have informed authorities about intimate deepfake content involving them this year.
Experts say the true scale of deepfake porn in the country is far bigger.
“I feel scared of living as a woman in South Korea,” said Kim Haeun, a 17-year-old high school student who recently removed all her photos on Instagram. She said she feels awkward when talking with male friends and tries to distance herself from boys she doesn’t know well.
“Most sex crimes target women. And when they happen, I think we are often helpless,” she said.
You could make porn illegal. Then you could prosecute boys for any porn. But feminists would never do that, because porn represses male sexuality.
So right now, with these rules against “deepfake porn,” you’re just outlawing the sexuality of teen boys. It’s a targeted attack.
“South Korea” is a stupid fake country, a pompous and illegal rebellion against the legitimate government of Korea. It’s now imploding in on itself, as was inevitable from the start. They are not producing children at all, because of their obsession with feminism and hatred of male sexuality, and they are going to go extinct in a generation. The established government of Korea will not have to fight a war to defeat the rebellion, and will simply walk into a Seoul filled with robotic nursing homes.
South Korea is facing its latest crisis of digital sex crimes.
Social media users took photos and videos of women and girls, manipulated them into sexual deepfakes, and posted them online for hundreds of thousands of people to watch. https://t.co/htMGWBuHRV pic.twitter.com/UAZB6HgDIw
