In October 2023, an unnamed male student at Aledo High School outside of Fort Worth, Texas generated and distributed deepfake nude pictures of classmate Elliston Berry and six other female students in her friend group via social media. Berry's mother, Anna McAdams, spoke with Senators Ted Cruz and Amy Klobuchar, who consequently drafted the Tools to Address Known Exploitation by Immobilizing Technological Deepfakes on Websites and Networks (or TAKE IT DOWN) Act.
