Deepfakes pose rising threats to digital trust, with increasingly convincing forgeries evading conventional detectors.

摘要

Deepfakes pose rising threats to digital trust, with increasingly convincing forgeries evading conventional detectors. Existing tools often rely on narrow cues from a single mechanism (e.g., a model or watermark), leaving them prone to false positives, false negatives, and circumvention. The Deepfake Detection System (DDS) [3] improves robustness by combining multiple models and user votes, but incurs high blockchain overhead and lacks voter anonymity, limiting scalability and deployment. We present a scalable, privacy-preserving framework that extends DDS with: (i) a content filtration layer using exact and perceptual hashing to remove redundant verification and cut blockchain load, and (ii) an adaptation of the IncogniSense protocol [4] for anonymous, reputation-weighted voting in a blockchain setting. Experiments show over 90% reduction in blockchain load, low-latency responses under stress, and strong privacy guarantees. These results address the key scalability and privacy barriers in blockchain-based deepfake detection, delivering a deployable, high-throughput framework for real-world platforms.
