Meta Ran Ads for an App That Promised to Nudify Female Politicians

Meta allowed advertisements for an app that generated non-consensual deepfake intimate imagery of female politicians, including a video depicting a US politician. Apple removed the app from its App Store following a media inquiry.

Why it matters: Platform operators, content moderation teams, and policy teams need to strengthen detection and enforcement against non-consensual intimate imagery ads; this affects women in public life and sets standards for advertiser vetting across ecosystems.
