  1. 01

    How should law enforcement distinguish between deepfake intimate images created for harm versus those made for satire, education, or artistic purposes?

  2. 02

    What evidence supports that federal criminal penalties will effectively deter deepfake creation when the technology becomes easier to access?

  3. 03

    Should the bill specify funding for federal prosecutors to handle these cases, or does enforcement rely on redirecting existing resources?
