The combined situation

DeepFaceLab is the most widely used open source deepfake training framework. It powers the majority of high quality deepfake NCII produced since 2020. When DeepFaceLab output appears on Pornhub, removal proceeds through the statutory takedown process under 47 USC 223a combined with source attribution to strengthen the legal claim.

Why this combination is high risk

DeepFaceLab requires technical skill to operate but produces the highest quality output of any current face swap technology. It is the source of most professional grade celebrity deepfake NCII. On Pornhub specifically, pornhub is among the most trafficked ncii destinations on the open web. mirror sites repost content within hours, so removal from pornhub alone is rarely sufficient without parallel removals from related domains.

How removal proceeds

Pornhub accepts NCII reports through its trusted flagger program and through its dedicated content removal form. Verified user uploads are tied to identity documents which supports subpoenas. Source attribution to DeepFaceLab is documented through deepfacelab output quality varies by training time and source material, but high quality models produce indistinguishable face swap output, which strengthens the takedown notice and supports parallel legal action.
