Strengthen copyright laws on our voices

What the petition asks
Our voice is a key part of our identity and right now we feel it is inadequately unprotected by UK law! We are demanding every person in the UK have a clearer, more enforceable copyright ownership over their own voice.
With advancements in AI technology the ability to replicate voices is becoming alarmingly simple.
In Denmark, there are legislative proposals to counteract this growing problem. There are similar state-level laws in the USA. However we think the UK government is not doing enough on the issue. This lack of enforceable protection by law not only could destroy careers of voice artists but also expose UK citizens identity security which could put us all at risk!
The Government needs to act.
