Austrian MEP Lena Schilling Speaks Out on Nude Deepfakes, Urges EU Action as Report Finds 1 in 6 Female MEPs Targeted

Here is what the page “Austrian MEP Lena Schilling Speaks Out on Nude Deepfakes, Urges EU Action as Report Finds ” contains. Austrian Green MEP Lena Schilling has revealed her experience of discovering AI-generated nude deepfakes of herself online, calling it 'digital violence against women' and a threat to democracy. The images, which she first learned about last month, were manipulated from footage of one of her early press conferences, digitally removing her clothing. Schilling described feeling 'disgusted' upon seeing the content.

Her testimony comes as a new report found that one in six female MEPs have been targeted by sexualised AI-generated content, highlighting the scale of the problem within the European Parliament. Schilling is urging the EU to take legislative action against non-consensual deepfakes, arguing that such abuse aims to silence women in public life. This listing links straight to the original page, where the content is available in full.
