# Denmark wants to make sharing a deepfake of you illegal : the new bill covers anyone's face and voice, makes an exception for satire and parody, and could take effect at the start of next year.

## Retrieval answer

## Denmark proposes copyright protection for faces and voices against deepfakes

## Denmark proposes copyright protection for faces and voices against deepfakes

Denmark is preparing an amendment to its copyright law that would prohibit sharing realistic deepfakes of people’s faces and voices without consent. The proposal would cover ordinary people as well as artists, including digital imitations of performances.

The bill preserves exceptions for satire, parody, and political or social criticism, unless the content constitutes misinformation posing serious dangers to others. Euronews reports the measure as a proposed bill, following a broad political agreement reached in June 2025; it is not yet enacted law. Its timing and final scope therefore remain subject to the legislative process.

The proposal treats realistic identity imitation as a rights issue, not solely a content-labeling problem. For teams building synthetic media products, consent and the legal basis for using a person’s likeness or voice may become operational constraints. The source establishes Denmark’s proposal, but does not establish how courts or platforms would apply the rule in practice.
