I’m not concerned so much about comedians being impersonated than I am about politicians making guest appearances in political ads suddenly saying/supporting untrue things.
They already do that. Frequently.
I think we can go against both here, the root cause seems the same

I find it weird that you think a well-done deepfake porn video of someone vulnerable would be in any way less affecting than if real porn had been released.
I've seen it brought up before, the notion isn't that it's ethical or OK, but some people think that the draw post any of that stuff will be gone because anyone could do it and you'd never know if any of it was authentic. Kind of like if you flooded the market with lab grown rhino horns to crash the price and stop poaching, and then also the demand goes away because there's no allure anymore.
I don't know if Id bet on it, but it's different than saying "I can deep fake porn of anyone without their consent so who wants revenge porn".
