Overview
- Mr. Deepfakes, a major platform for non-consensual deepfake porn, has ceased operations permanently due to a terminated service provider and data loss.
- A notice on the site confirms there will be no relaunch, and the domain is set to expire, with operators disclaiming responsibility for any future use.
- The platform served as a central hub for developing, sharing, and monetizing non-consensual deepfake content, including tools like DeepFaceLab.
- Following the shutdown, the site's community has shifted to Telegram, continuing to share techniques and content despite increasing global regulation.
- Recent legal developments include the US criminalizing non-consensual deepfake imagery and the European Commission proposing similar measures in 2024.
