Reddit prohibits users from pretending to be someone else for deception – IT Pro – News

There is also little wrong with a nickname.

But presenting yourself as someone you are not a different story, certainly leading a second life seems fine to me (is that person’s problem) but, for example, presenting yourself as someone who you are not (and then I am not referring to something pathetic and innocently, there are people who, for example, present themselves as doctors but who are not, or that they are politicians, etc. I don’t think.

Presenting the same to yourself as someone you are not and then embarrassing or blaming someone (pretending to be Bill Gates for example)

Deepfakes is a different story, problem is not the technique behind it, but that people mainly use it online to harm others, I saw an “advertisement” on a gaming website this week where “leaked” sex tape with Donald Trump appeared .. You don’t even have to look for that stuff anymore, the internet will push it against your will.

And you would think that people would not fall for this but the internet is full of naive people who believe it with open arms.
