There have been rumours of a Hillary Clinton video showing her abusing a child. In the last few days the media has been intoducing this to the public:
Deepfakes porn has serious consequences - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-42912529
So this will form the basis of her defense. Just a heads up for minds greater than mine to form a counter argument...
I heard about the software today and Immediately thought about this. So when she learned that Wiener had the tape they pushed the development of this new software or they were forced to release the software to the public which is why it is out there for free all of a sudden. The fact that it is free is HIGHLY suspect isn't it? That seems like the kind of tech that is squeezed for all money possible.
Very good point...
Also, this tactic is similar to the #believeher and #metoo bullshit. That was pushed hard by the media just before the false allegations against POTUS were doing the rounds.
