GitHub's Deepfake Porn Crackdown Still Isn't Working

In late November, a deepfake porn maker claiming to be based in the US uploaded a sexually explicit video to the world's largest site for pornographic deepfakes, featuring TikTok influencer Charli D'Amelio's face superimposed onto a porn performer's body. Despite the influencer presumably playing no role in the video's production, it was viewed more than 8,200 times and captured the attention of other deepfake fans. What program did you use for creating the deepfake??" one user going by the name balascool commented. D'Amelio's agent did not reply to a request for comment. The video's creator, "DeepWorld23," has claimed in the comments that the program was a deepfake model hosted on developer platform GitHub.
