A growing number of services offer, to anyone who pays, the automated generation of intimate imagery of real identifiable people from ordinary photographs. They do not ask the person depicted, and have no way to ask.
We establish how such a service operates, which company serves its content, which registrar sponsors its domain, and how it is paid.
Where what we find breaches a provider's own published rules or applicable law, we report it to that provider or to the competent authority, citing the rule and offering our evidence.
We do not act for individual victims. Under the TAKE IT DOWN Act a removal request must come from the person depicted or someone they authorise. We do not submit such requests for anyone we do not represent, and we do not hold ourselves out as anyone's representative.
We do not assert rights we do not hold. We file no copyright notice in respect of any work in which neither we nor a party we represent holds rights.
We take no payment to target anyone. Neither the organisation nor anyone acting on its behalf accepts payment or any other thing of value in exchange for examining, reporting, or declining to report a particular service.
We do not attach the material itself. Reports identify material by location and describe it. Material that appears to depict a minor is referred to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and to law enforcement, and is never sent to a commercial provider.
We do not exercise these services on photographs of real people. Where a service must be used to establish what it does, we use imagery of ourselves or of people who do not exist.
We cannot act for you and we cannot compel a platform to do anything. These services can, and they are free.

Operated by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. The file stays on your device, only the fingerprint is sent, and you may remain anonymous.
Since 19 May 2026 the FTC enforces the notice and removal duties of the TAKE IT DOWN Act. If a platform ignored your request, or did not remove the material within 48 hours, you can report it.
