Apple and Google told to take down these illegal — and exploitative — apps
The violated law aims to protect women, minors, and exes.
Apple and Google were on the receiving end of multiple letters telling them to stop allowing abusive apps to be available on their platforms.
The City of San Francisco said it had been contacting the tech giants for almost a year to get them to stop, but they have continued to provide access to the apps while raking in profits.
'Apple and Google have a responsibility to be proactive and vigilant to prevent sexual abuse.'
San Francisco accused both companies of "processing payments for illegal purchases" that allow users to digitally alter pictures using AI to unclothe whomever is in the photograph.
Commonly referred to as "nudify" apps, the city reportedly ordered dozens of the programs to be removed, as Apple and Google have continued to make money off them.
