Abstract
Apparatus and methods for using deepfakes defensively to detect fake, spoofed, and hoax accounts and posts on social media and elsewhere are provided. A program may gather verified images or writings of a target individual. The program may analyze the verified images and writings to create a baseline. The program may use deepfake algorithms to create exemplar deepfake images or writings. The program may store the data in a database. The program may search a network for social media accounts or posts that may meet the baseline and determine whether they are legitimate or illegitimate by comparing the contents of the accounts or posts with the exemplar deepfakes. When the program determines the accounts or posts are illegitimate, the program may initiate a takedown of those accounts or posts. The program may use machine learning algorithms to refine itself and become more accurate.
