San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu has directed Apple and Google to remove apps that create non-consensual intimate images from their app stores. The move comes after years of the companies allegedly hosting applications violating state law.
In letters sent to both Apple and Google, San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu stated that both companies have “long been aware” they were hosting apps in violation of state law. These apps, often referred to as ‘nudify’ apps, utilize artificial intelligence to remove clothing from images without the subject's consent.
The letters emphasize the legal ramifications of allowing such applications to remain available. Chiu argues that these apps facilitate the creation of deepfakes and non-consensual pornography, causing significant harm to individuals. The City Attorney contends that Apple and Google have a responsibility to prevent the distribution of tools used for malicious purposes.
While the specific details of the state law being violated were not detailed in the source, the directive clearly aims to hold the tech giants accountable for the content hosted on their platforms. Chiu’s letters demand immediate action to purge these apps and prevent similar applications from appearing in the future.
