Danish citizens to ‘own their own faces’ to prevent deepfakes
Denmark plans to become the first country in the world to give its citizens copyright over their faces and voices in an effort to clamp down on “deepfakes” — videos, audio clips and images that are digitally doctored to spread false information.

Ah janteloven, danish humility.
I live in Denmark, used to live in the US. Lots of problems still, but it's basically just across the board better in most ways to me.
I think the copyright law is a great step. Yeah, there's probably some holes in the law and it doesn't fix everything but I don't know what else could be done, nor what other countries are doing nearly this much
About to live in Denmark for about six months, I'm certain I will have to be dragged back into the states kicking and screaming the whole while. I'm fully expecting some pretty large changes in my mental health and quality of life.
Ah very cool, Tillykke! Hit me up if you need any recommendations. I'm sure you'll be busy!
Having copyright means nothing if the people can't enforce it. How mch does it cost for a normal citizen to take one (1) corporation to a jury trial, again?
Good article except that they called this:
A grey area. Come on, that's very clearly satire.
And the AI Company Man told me I needed to scan my face into an orb to do this! At least they used the word "governance" a bit and offered me a pittance for the brave new opportunity.
