Original Note:
NNN - Libel/defamation is not protected by the 1st amendment. Additionally, despite the fact that there isn't any current legislation, there's support in favor of new legislation to criminalize video manipulation with an intent to slander (known as a "deepfake"). https://uwm.edu/free-speech-rights-responsibilities/faqs/what-is-defamation/ https://www.reuters.com/legal/legalindustry/manipulating-reality-intersection-deepfakes-law-2024-02-01/
