Summary
San Francisco is suing Apple and Google over their role in profiting from “nudify” apps that generate non-consensual deepfake porn — apps that violate California law and could soon face civil penalties. The city attorney claims both companies knew about these apps and the payments flowing through their platforms for nearly a year, and now demands they remove them within 28 days or face legal consequences. While Apple and Google say they’ve already taken action — removing or suspending apps and blocking related searches — critics argue they’ve been too slow to stop the spread of harmful AI content targeting anyone whose photos are online.
