Everyone's gonna act like they don't care until scammers are calling your loved ones with your face and your voice and stealing your life savings. Or people are working remote jobs using your voice and face and government ID and you have to pay the taxes for it. Or whatever.

This is a new front of identity theft. The laws that are crafted now are going to decide how awful this new technology will be able to be exploited. You may not care about a voice actor from a video game having her voice stolen, but the impact of decisions surrounding this stuff is going to affect us all at some point very soon.

My dad is in his 70s. When a suspicious message comes through, he asks a question that only the family would know, or sometimes asks questions that has no relation to the family to see if I answer normally.

It doesn't fix anything globally, all I can say is I appreciate being raised by a paranoid nerd who expected this sort of thing in his lifetime.
