How to fix it

Do not post. Remove any intimate image of a real person who has not consented.

Good to know

Watch for leaked or 'exposed' intimate photos, nudified or deepfake sexual images of real people, threats to share nudes. Does NOT count: survivors telling their story without showing abuse, awareness content that does not show abuse.

Can FYProof spot it?

A full check of your video looks for it in what's shown, what's said, the words on screen and the caption. What a check finds is an estimate, not a guarantee.
