Many so called "deep fakes" are in fact just pardies, pieces of art and so on putting withour the context or reclaimed with another backstroy.
The initial case to creat a picture may be legit, while a internet troll or even a actuall agent with an political agency use the pic out of context.
Lets provide an example. Lets say I would make a caricature of a politican for a meme. After that, somebody else comming, taking the caricature and make something different out of it. Fake News for instance. Where comes the problem with "deep fakes" in? As far as I see, Fair Use protects the first step. Its allowed to make caricatures from politicans. The second step doesn't actually make a deep fake, just use a picture that was there before.
