404 Media / Hacker News·medium signal

404 Media published a deep investigation into how a student at Radnor High School in Pennsylvania used an app called Movely to generate deepfake sexual images of five female classmates, and how the school's response failed the victims — initially telling parents police found 'nothing inappropriate' despite later filing harassment charges. The story hit 66 points and 135 comments on HN, and has triggered policy changes including a statewide PA directive and the school district explicitly banning nonconsensual generative AI use.
