The Senate Judiciary Committee advanced the NO FAKES Act, a bill designed to stop unauthorized AI deepfakes of artists, performers, and public figures by giving people control over their digital replicas. Critics including tech and civil liberties groups warn the measure could enable overbroad takedowns of lawful speech, satire, parody, and political content. #NOFAKESAct #ChrisCoons #MarshaBlackburn #NetChoice #ACLU #EFF
