South Korea is intensifying its scrutiny on the messaging app Telegram, investigating its potential role in facilitating deepfake pornography crimes.
The investigation focuses on whether Telegram's minimal moderation policies are enabling the spread of digital sex crimes, including those targeting minors. South Korean authorities are concerned about the platform's use in distributing deepfake porn, which uses AI to create realistic images or videos of individuals without their consent. This move comes as Telegram's founder, Pavel Durov, faces charges in France for allegedly allowing criminal activities on the app.
The case highlights growing global concerns over the misuse of technology in perpetrating sexual crimes.
