Paris Hilton has published a TikTok series, "Searching for Mr. Deepfakes," to combat explicit deepfakes. The series, created in partnership with Laurie Segall, investigates deepfake pornography.

What happened

The docuseries chronicles Segall's investigation into a deepfake pornography site that received 17 million views a month. The site profited from deepfakes of celebrities and even family members. Segall, along with investigators and white-hat hackers, tracked down the site's owner, leading to its shutdown in May 2025. The series also spotlights deepfake survivors and advocates for stronger protections. Hilton hopes the series will spark conversation and drive change in protecting women and girls in the digital world.
