A violation does not depend on the scene being real
Edited or AI-generated images can associate an identifiable person with an intimate situation that never happened. The publication’s context, identification of the person and lack of consent guide the assessment.
Where exposure needs to be assessed
The material may appear in a post, on a website or in search results. Each location needs its own assessment. Reporting to the hosting platform and requesting search removal are separate actions that may receive responses at different times.
A first contact with less exposure
Describe the situation and where the content appears. You do not need to send intimate images to begin a conversation. The team explains which information is relevant, so you do not have to redistribute the material just to explain the problem.
From assessment to requests
Erasly identifies the addresses, assesses applicable policies and presents a scope of work. Requests may concern non-consensual intimate content and image misuse. We do not assume that every deepfake is copyright infringement: the approach depends on the violation identified.
Questions about this solution
Does Google accept requests about fake intimate images?
Google’s removal policies provide for assessment of certain fake sexual content. The person’s identifiability and other request criteria must be checked. Removal from search does not erase content at its source.
Is there a guarantee that the manipulated image will not reappear?
No. New publications can occur, and prevention mechanisms have limits. The scope assessment clarifies how follow-up and any new addresses will be handled.
