Trump to sign law forcing platforms to remove revenge porn in 48 hours | Take It Down Act’s 48-hour timeline may be both too fast and too slow.


Take It Down Act’s 48-hour timeline may be both too fast and too slow.

That means that within one year, every online platform will be required to remove both actual NCII and fake nudes generated by artificial intelligence within 48 hours of victims' reports or face steep penalties. The law's passing comes at a time when AI-generated revenge porn is increasingly harming a wider pool of victims—including some who may have never shared a compromising photo, like dozens of kids in middle and high schools nationwide. Victims have long suggested that consistency is key to keeping revenge porn offline, and the Take It Down Act certainly offers that, creating a moderately delayed delete button on every major platform.
