Abstract

In the digital age, with the rapid development of network technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence, while the lives, work, and studies of the general public have been greatly facilitated, many new types of illegal crimes have also emerged. The new type of crime brought about by deepfake technology has become a typical representative. For example, new types of crimes such as telecommunications fraud, pornography extortion, and online rumors. The paper, through the methods of literature review, case analysis, and comparative study, explores the harmful manifestations and difficulties in cracking down on deepfake crime, identifying the current governance shortcomings, proposing feasible technical investigation, legal regulation, and platform management optimization plans, and providing decision-making references for public security organs and regulatory departments. The paper finds that the new type of crime caused by deepfake technology is seriously harmful and difficult to crack down on, and effective control needs to be achieved through multi-dimensional comprehensive governance.
