Politician: "I deny having ever engaged in such scandalous activity as depicted in these images. That means that they must be fakes. Arrest this man who has dared to present them!"
The actual reality of realistic deep fakes is that people will generally stop caring about them and the people who might otherwise be embarrassed by them will probably stop caring in time as well. Any major star is going to have deep fake porn made of them. If there's one video of Tom Cruise getting fisted by a Mariachi band, I and others might be tempted to watch. When there's one hundred such videos and more being made every week, no one will care.
If I were famous If probably dump so much deep fakes crap out there that even if something real ever did get leaked onto the internet, no one would be able to tell or would even take notice of it.
