Disturbing deepfake tool on popular messaging app Telegram is forging NUDE images of underage girls from clothed photos on their social media
The unnamed 'bot' works using artificial intelligence and machine learning
It operates on the Telegram messaging app with over 100,000 images shared
Report authors say anyone is at risk of having an image taken and a nude faked
The majority of the women and girls 'faked' by the bot were private individuals
A security firm called Sensity says it recently discovered a network of deepfake bots on chat app Telegram, creating computer-generated naked images of women on request. As of July 2020, the firm found that the bots have generated deepfakes of approximately 104,000 women. In the last three months, its output has increased by nearly 200 percent. You might expect the software spent most of its time processing images of celebrities, but it seems most people used it to create naked photos of women they know in real life. In either case, most victims likely don’t know fake images of them are floating around on the internet. The firm also found that a “limited number” of the photos feature underage children.

Here's what happened when NBC News tried to investigate the alleged Hunter Biden emails
NBC News October 30, 2020
But the Wall Street Journal and Fox News — among the only news organizations that have been given access to key documents — found that the emails and other records don’t make that case. Leaving aside the many questions about their provenance, the materials offered no evidence that Joe Biden played any role in his son’s dealings in China, let alone profited from them, both news organizations concluded.
As to Ukraine, a single email published by the New York Post suggests Joe Biden may have had a meeting with a representative of a Ukrainian company that employed his son. Trump and his allies alleged that means Joe Biden has lied when he said he never discussed his son’s business roles. The Biden campaign denies the meeting happened.
The lack of major new revelations is perhaps the biggest reason the story has not gotten traction, but not the only one. Among others: Most mainstream news organizations, including NBC News, have not been granted access to the documents. NBC News asked by email, text, phone call and certified mail, and was ultimately denied.
Rupert Murdoch apologises to Dowler family
Friday 15 July 2011 17:50
Rupert Murdoch was "humbled" and held his head in his hands as he apologised to Milly Dowler's family today for the hacking of the murdered schoolgirl's phone by the News of the World.
The media mogul gave a "full and sincere apology" to Milly's parents, Sally and Bob, and her sister Gemma at a meeting in a central London hotel, family lawyer Mark Lewis said.
Police claims that the teenager's voicemails were illegally intercepted by a private investigator working for the News of the World after she went missing in 2002 triggered a string of damaging revelations which led to the closure of the Sunday tabloid.
Fox paid seven figures to settle lawsuit over bogus Seth Rich conspiracy story
Monday 23 November 2020
The parents of murdered Democratic Party staffer Seth Rich;have settled their blockbuster lawsuit against Fox News;just as key figures inside the network, including hosts Sean Hannity and Lou Dobbs, were slated to potentiall give testimony in the case.
The hastily arranged settlement also had the benefit of sparing Hannity and other Fox News figures — including network president Jay Wallace and contributor Newt Gingrich — the ordeal of being grilled under oath about claims in a series of broadcasts in May 2017 that blamed the leak of DNC emails to WikiLeaks on Rich. At the time, Hannity called a Fox News story attributing the DNC leak to Rich an “explosive” development that “might expose the single biggest fraud, lies, perpetrated on the American people by the media and the Democrats in our history.”
On Dec. 13, hackers appeared to take control of Dixie D’Amelio’s TikTok account. With 46.4 million followers as of writing, the older D’Amelio sister is one of the most-followed people" on the app.
Before her account was deleted entirely on Dec. 14, some of her followers captured photos and screen recordings of videos that the alleged hackers posted to her account. Before TikTok took action and disabled the account, the supposed hacker also went live and plugged his own Instagram account, @koiiddd.

TUCKER CARLSON'S MOST SHOCKING RADIO COMMENTS
Below is a list of the most controversial comments by Tucker Carlson revealed in the transcripts compiled by Media Matters For America:
What women want:
'By the way, women hate you when they do you wrong and you put up with it. Because they hate weakness. They're like dogs that way. They can smell it on you, and they have contempt for it; they’ll bite you.
'I mean, I love women, but they're extremely primitive, they're basic, they're not that hard to understand. And one of the things they hate more than anything is weakness in a man.'
- October 30, 2007
In defense of underage marriage:
'I just don't think it's the same thing exactly as pulling a child from a bus stop and sexually assaulting that child.
'The rapist, in this case, has made a lifelong commitment to live and take care of the person, so it is a little different. I mean, let's be honest about it.'
- August 27, 2009
Warren Jeffs' imprisonment for facilitation of child rape is 'bullshit'
'I should make the laws around here, and Michael Vick would have been executed, and Warren Jeffs would be out on the street.
'I'm not for child rape. I'm just saying, if you mistreat dogs like that, we're going to have to execute you.
In defense of a teacher who had sex with a 13-year-old female student
'Teacher's like this, not necessarily this one in particular, but they are doing a service to all 13-year-old girls by taking the pressure off. They are a pressure relief valve, like the kind you have on your furnace.'
- April 4, 2006
In defense of Duke University lacrosse players accused of gang raping a sex worker
'She sells sex for a living. If she's accusing other people of nonconsensual sex, it's a little more complicated than if some, you know, housewife claims she was pulled off the street and raped.
'It's just not the same thing. It's harder to determine what's consensual and what's not.'
April 8, 2006
The case for removing rape shield laws
'Why is it if I accuse you of embezzlement, of shooting my dog, or shooting me, of any crime, I have to go face you in open court. My name is available to anybody who's reporting on the case, right?
'Your name is in the public eye. My name is in the public eye. Why is it that, in this one category of crimes, the accuser doesn't have to be treated as an adult? I don't understand that. It gives the accuser all the power.
'So if I'm alleging rape, I have the protection of anonymity. I can say whatever I want while hiding behind anonymity, while the person I accused, whether he's guilty or not, has his life destroyed. That's totally unfair.
'We've done a couple of shows on this, and we always had these feminists on who kind of: "Well, because no one would ever report rape". Really? I don't know. Women seem to be adults to me. I mean, in other words, if you are grievously injured by another person, it's not your fault. I don't understand why, if you're an adult, you just can't get up and say: "This is what the person did to me."'

On Alexis Stewart
'She seems extremely c***y. I just wanted to give her the spanking she so desperately needs.
'I don't normally laugh at girls' appearances, just because I think it's mean. But she - I'm bending the rule for her.'
- May 2, 2006
On Hillary Clinton
'She has dreams of real power. Now, if she were to get real power -- let's say she were to get absolute power, how long do you think it would take before she castrated you?'
- March 12, 2006
'The problem with Hillary is you look at Hillary and you know in your heart that if she could castrate you, she would.
'So thereby she gets not a single vote from any white male in the country. Now you can hate white males if you want, but you kind of need them to vote for you.'
- March 14, 2006
On Oprah Winfrey
'Somehow the rest of us have been bullied into pretending that Oprah's great, that she doesn't hate the penis, that she's not anti-man. But she completely is.
'The subtext of every Oprah show is men suck. They abuse you, they rape you, they sleep with your sister and leave you.'

On 14-year-old girls experimenting sexually at boarding school
'If it weren't my daughter I would love that scenario.'
