The CAC(Cybercrime Administration of China) explains that in the last few years this technology is growing very rapidly and along with giving proper access and ease to the user , this is used by many bad people and criminals, to spread and distract and defame the famous personalities and humiliate them, which is totally against Human rights.
They are not completely banning this technology but they are applying certain obligations for the creators, like the deepfake they create should not harm or defame or disrupt the reputation of personalities. It should not be the cause of humiliating someone or used to spread false information. And there should be a specific watermark for these deepfake to identify the creator.
