The bipartisan Disrupt Explicit Forged Images and Non-Consensual Edits Act (DEFIANCE) Act enables victims of sexually explicit deepfakes to pursue civil remedies against those who “knowingly produce, distribute, or receive” them.

The facts in this piece by The Independent are shocking but sadly they are reflective of the difficulties we see survivors face in accessing compensation. At Hope for Justice, survivors we help have had to wait years for outcomes in CICA cases and positive outcomes are rare without intensive advocacy and legal representation, which sadly isn't always available for every survivor. Thank you to After Exploitation for bringing these figures to light and to Independent Anti-Slavery Commissioner Eleanor Lyons for speaking out about this issue. More must be done to ensure that survivors of modern slavery have fair access to compensation. #CICA #CICS #Compensation #ModernSlavery
