Facebook tries to curb deepfake videos as 2020 election heats up

"Facebook was praised by some experts, including Boston University Law School professor Danielle Citron, for becoming more proactive and receptive to outside input. Citron, one of the experts who advised Facebook on the policy, also said that exempting satire and parody was important, arguing the policy "gives breathing room for deepfakes that contribute to public debate" and marks a step to banning harmful ones.

But she also said that Facebook needs to do more.
"The policy should also ban digital forgeries showing people doing things they never did," she said. "Some deep fakes don't involve words, just actions like deep fake sex videos. They invade sexual privacy and cause profound harm.""
