Meta cracks down on nudify apps after being exposed
Briefly

Meta has initiated a lawsuit against Joy Timeline for promoting generative AI apps that enable users to digitally undress individuals without consent. This follows a CBS News investigation revealing numerous ads for nudify apps on Meta's platforms, including Facebook and Instagram. Despite efforts to remove offending content and improve ad review processes, Meta faces challenges in enforcing its policies due to the evolving tactics of exploitative applications. These ads, primarily targeting men in the US and Europe, contribute to increasing cases of blackmail and non-consensual image sharing, particularly affecting women.
"This legal action underscores both the seriousness with which we take this abuse and our commitment to doing all we can to protect our community from it."
"We’ll continue to take the necessary steps - which could include legal action - against those who abuse our platforms like this."
