TL;DR / Emergency Action Plan

If you are a victim of non-consensual explicit content (NCII), deepfakes, or morphed photo leaks: 1. Create digital hashes on StopNCII.org to proactively block uploads across major platforms. 2. Request global de-indexing using Google's Non-Consensual Explicit Image Removal Form. 3. File an emergency or anonymous complaint on cybercrime.gov.in or call 1930. 4. Scrub your personal phone and address details from commercial data brokers to prevent further contact or harassment.

The unauthorized sharing of non-consensual intimate images (NCII), morphed AI photos, deepfakes, or explicit video leaks is a severe crime under Indian law. Victims often feel overwhelmed, but there are established, fast-acting digital tools, legal rights, and reporting frameworks designed to help you regain control immediately.

1. Block Future Uploads With StopNCII.org

StopNCII.org is a non-profit global platform backed by cybersecurity organizations and major tech platforms (Meta, Instagram, Reddit, OnlyFans, TikTok, and others).

Generate secure hashes locally

Visit StopNCII.org on your phone or laptop. The tool generates a cryptographic fingerprint (hash) of the intimate photo or video directly on your device. Your actual photo or video is NEVER uploaded to the internet or any server.

Platform auto-blocking

Participating social networks and image hosts compare new uploads against these hashes to automatically detect, block, and remove matching explicit content worldwide.

If explicit photos or videos appear in Google Search results or web pages, Google provides an expedited removal protocol under their non-consensual explicit personal content policy.
