Atrioc helps remove 200k deepfakes after paying for images of female streamers

 jul23

Back in January 2023, Atrioc issued a tearful apology on stream after he accidentally revealed on stream that he had paid for deepfake images of female streamers.

He swiftly stepped down from his position in OFFBRAND, the agency he started alongside Ludwig, and announced a break from streaming.

Atrioc uploaded an update video on July 17, 2023, revealing some of the progress he’s done to help remove the controversial content.

In the video, Atrioc revealed that he has been working with a company to automatically issue DMCAs to remove deepfake content across the internet.

With an initial budget of $100,000 and a goal to remove 100k pieces of deepfake content, Ewing revealed that he and his team blew through both goals.

“We didn’t hit that number, we smashed it. I’m super proud to say that as of July 9, 2023, we got 193,000 things taken down,” he said. “We did it with $122,000.”
