Why would it make revenge porn less of a thing? Why are so many people here convinced that as long people say it's "fake" it's not going to negatively affect them?

The mouth breathers will never go away. They might even use the excuse the other way around, that because someone could say just about everything is fake, then it might be real and the victim might be lying. Remember that blurry pictures of bigfoot were enough to fool a lot of people.

Hell, even others believe it is fake, wouldn't it still be humilliating?

I think you're underestimating the potential effects of an entire society starting to distrust pictures/video. Yeah a blurry Bigfoot fooled an entire generation, but nowadays most people you talk to will say it's doctored. Scale that up to a point where literally anyone can make completely realistic pics/vids of anything in their imagination, and have it be indistinguishable from real life? I think there's a pretty good chance that "nope, that's a fake picture of me" will be a believable, no question response to just about anything. It's a problem

I hope someone sends your mom a deepfake of you being dismembered with a rusty saw. I'm sure the horror will fade with time.

What a horrible thing to wish on a random person on the internet. Maybe take a break on being so reactionary, jesus
