Tania Chin interviewed on CNA: “CNA Explains: What are the legal options for victims of deepfake porn?”

Features Private: Tania Chin

Tania Chin was interviewed by Koh Wan Ting on CNA.
The article covered the legal options for victims of deepfake porn. Tania is quoted saying that under the Protection from Harassment Act (POHA), those who intentionally cause harassment, alarm or distress could be charged as well, and this could apply to creators and distributors of deepfake pornography.
To deal with harmful content online, Wan Ting reported that Singapore also has the Online Criminal Harms Act (OCHA). Tania added that under OCHA, if the deepfake pornographic images are posted on an online platform, the government can issue a disabling direction which requires online services providers to disable specified content such as a post or page on their service from the view of people in Singapore.
