Some said they were reporting accounts that were sharing the deepfakes.这些照片开始传播后，这位歌手的忠实粉丝群“Swifties”很快就为她辩护。 他们发起了一场保护运动，并在网站上发布了更多这位歌手的正面图片。 他们在帖子上使用了#ProtectTaylorSwift 标签。 一些人表示，他们正在举报分享深度假货的账户。The deepfake-search group Reality Defender said it followed many posts of pornographic material of Swift.
