According to an insider who disclosed to the Daily Mail, Taylor Swift is experiencing intense anger and contemplating possibly resorting to legal measures.

As the decision regarding potential legal action hangs in the balance, one thing remains indisputable: a trusted source declares the derogatory nature of these fabricated AI-generated images, created without Taylor's consent or knowledge, as abusive, offensive, and exploitative.

According to Page Six's source, an X account used to post these particular pictures. Surprisingly, the social media platform allowed them to stay online in the first place.
