MrDeepFakes hosted non-consensual deepfake images of journalist Patrizia Schlosser
Patrizia Schlosser, a German investigative journalist, found more than 30 pornographic images of herself on MrDeepFakes, a website hosting non-consensual deepfake content. The images had been online for almost two years before being removed in January 2025. Bellingcat's investigation linked MrDeepFakes to apps including Deepswap and Candy.ai, which were advertised on the site. MrDeepFakes did not respond to requests for comment.
