“Politicians should take action to ensure that no one ever dares to degrade us again.”
The Seoul Women’s Association and members of university student groups concerned with minorities’ rights met in front of Gangnam Station’s Exit 10 on Thursday afternoon to hold an emergency press briefing to demand that the government and the National Assembly take action against online sex crimes involving the distribution of pornographic deepfakes.
“Whenever issues related to online sex crimes, such as the proliferation of Soranet [South Korea’s biggest nonconsensual pornography website] and the Nth Room online sexual abuse case came to light, the government would belatedly respond to such situations only after feeling the wrath of the public. However, such responses were short-lived. The government should conduct thorough investigations to bring the truth to light, punish perpetrators and come up with preventive measures,” those gathered said.
“In a generation in which social media has become part of our daily lives, the fact that taking and sharing pictures online can lead to the victimization of people demonstrates how crime is ravaging people’s lives,” they went on. “Let us proclaim that the creation and consumption of pornographic deepfakes is criminal and stand in solidarity with victims.”
The Seoul Women’s Association and other likeminded associations have established a joint action coalition to denounce deepfake sex crimes and plan to hold events every Friday night near Gangnam station at which women will engage in continuous dialogue about this most recent spate of digital sex crimes, starting on Aug. 30.
