The State of Likeness Misuse in India

India's first dedicated study of how creators' and public figures' faces, voices and content are used without consent — and what it costs them.

What we're measuring

How often Indian creators discover their content reused beyond agreed terms; deepfake and voice-clone encounter rates; what share of brand deals include written usage rights; time and cost of getting misuse removed; awareness of DPDP consent rights.

Methodology

Structured survey of Indian creators, talent managers and brand marketers across follower tiers and languages, supplemented by platform-level detection data from the Zimorta Radar pilot. Anonymised, aggregated, and published with the full questionnaire.

What you'll get

The full report (free), citation-ready statistics, and the underlying aggregate tables. Journalists and researchers get early access and interview availability.
