Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Leaked intimate images, sextortion, deepfakes, the TAKE IT DOWN Act and what you can do about it. Drawn from the law and official guidance.

01 What is Alecto AI?

Alecto AI is a free AI agent for survivors of image-based abuse: leaked intimate images (often called “revenge porn”), sextortion, AI deepfakes and hidden-camera recordings. You tell Alecto what happened once. It prepares takedown requests for platforms, a report for the police and a file for a lawyer, and connects you to support services. Nothing is shared without your permission.

02 I just found intimate images of me online. What do I do first?

Take a breath. You have not done anything wrong, and there are clear steps you can take. First, do not download, forward or re-post the material, even to report it. Save what you safely can: the web address, the account name, a screenshot of the page around the image, and the date and time you found it.

Then report it to the platform. Since 19 May 2026, U.S. platforms must act within 48 hours of a valid request. If you are in the U.S. and over 18, you can also call the CCRI Image Abuse Helpline at 1‑844‑878‑2274; it is free and open 24/7. If you are in physical danger right now, contact local emergency services first.

03 My ex posted my nudes online. What can I do?

What your ex did is often called “revenge porn”. The law calls it publishing intimate images without consent, and since 19 May 2025 it has been a federal crime in the United States under the TAKE IT DOWN Act. It is not your fault, even if you once shared the images with them.

You can ask each platform to remove the images; covered platforms must act within 48 hours of a valid request. You can report your ex to the police, and you can sue them in federal court for damages under 15 U.S.C. § 6851. Alecto can prepare the takedown requests, a police report and a lawyer intake file from one account of what happened.

04 Someone is blackmailing me with my photos. Should I pay?

No. This is called sextortion. The FBI warns that paying does not make it stop: blackmailers usually ask for more, and often share the images anyway. Stop replying, but do not delete the messages, the account or your chat history, because they help investigators.

Report it to the FBI at tips.fbi.gov or 1‑800‑CALL‑FBI, or to local police. Under the TAKE IT DOWN Act, threatening to share intimate images is itself a federal crime. If images are already online, StopNCII.org (18 and over) or NCMEC’s Take It Down (under 18) can help block them. Be wary of companies that charge sextortion victims for help; the FBI warns against them.

05 How do I get my images removed from Google or Bing search results?

Both search engines have free forms for this. Google lets you request removal of explicit or intimate images of you shared without consent, and has a separate form for fake explicit images. Microsoft’s form covers Bing. You will need the links to the pages or images.

Removing a search result does not delete the image from the website itself, so also send a takedown request to the site where it is posted. StopNCII.org can help stop the same image being re-uploaded to its partner platforms.

06 What does the TAKE IT DOWN Act actually do for me?

It puts the law firmly on your side. Signed on 19 May 2025, it makes knowingly publishing your intimate images or a sexual deepfake of you a federal crime, and it forces online platforms to give you a way to get the content removed.

Once a platform receives your valid request, it must take the content down, and make reasonable efforts to remove known identical copies, within 48 hours. Platforms have been required to comply since 19 May 2026.
