Trigger warning: This page addresses digital sexualized violence..
Imagine this: You come across Gülsha Adilji – or even yourself – on a platform like OnlyFans. The face is familiar, yet not a single image is real.
With this deceptively realistic mock-up account, we show what happens online every single day – often without the person’s knowledge. We want to highlight how easily intimate deepfakes can be created today, and how quickly they can destroy someone’s reputation, privacy, and sense of security. At the same time, we present possible ways to protect yourself.
The topless photos were created by AI artist Basil Stücheli using artificial intelligence.
Here, Basil shows how a deceptively realistic fake photo is created from the original image from the Ringier archive by Geri Born:
You start doubting yourself and your control over your image.
Perpetrators have something you can’t stop – and use it to threaten you.
Many pay to have the images taken down – often in vain.
Out of fear and shame, victims withdraw instead of seeking help.
Uncover fakes before they cause harm.
Support those affected and reveal perpetrators’ tactics.
Make knowledge, tools, and help accessible.
So that digital closeness connects rather than harms.
One third of all young people have already encountered sextortion-like content.

80% of victims do not come forward due to fear/shame.
