Deepfake is a severe challenge to the digital privacy of individuals and, more alarmingly, children. There are alarming rates of misuse of images and sounds of children in relation to the increased availability of synthetic media. The purpose of this paper is to provide a comparative analysis of existing legal mechanisms employed to protect the privacy of minors in the context of deepfakes in India, the United States, and China, three of which have very different legal, technological, and cultural approaches to concerns. The paper evaluates efforts of these jurisdictions to mitigate abuse of synthetic media using current data protection, child protection, and cybercrime legislation. The authors define the strengths and weaknesses of current legal frameworks under rapid advancements in technology. Lastly, the paper concludes with possible recommendations, such as substantive international collaboration, regulatory transparency, and enforcement capacity of legal frameworks, to address emerging risks posed by deepfake technology on children.
