Notify your employer with documentation of legal action underway (Civitai content on Google)

Why this matters for Civitai content on Google

• Civitai hosts thousands of LoRA models trained on identifiable individuals without their consent. Each removed model prevents future generation rather than addressing existing content.
• Google Search and Google Images are the discovery layer for nearly every NCII case. Removing the underlying content does not always remove the cached version from Google, and reverse image search can surface mirrors.
• Civitai content distributed through Google typically reaches between four and twelve additional platforms within 72 hours through reposts, mirrors, and cross platform redistribution.
• Source attribution to Civitai is critical for employer notification because it establishes the AI generated nature of the content, which strengthens statutory claims under 47 USC 223a regardless of whether the depicted person ever existed in unaltered form.

How AI generator removal works

What to do, step by step

1. 01
   Preserve evidence before any other action Capture full page screenshots with the URL bar visible, save the highest resolution copy of the content available, and document the Civitai fingerprint indicators including civitai itself does not generate images, but hosts the model files used by other tools. Letter or evidence package documenting the legal action underway
2. 02
   Run a biometric scan to find every copy across platforms Civitai content distributed on Google rarely stays there. ScanErase indexes 2.4 billion face embeddings across 200 plus platforms and identifies every current hosting location in a single scan, including additional Civitai variations.
3. 03
   Provide the documented notification to the employer Provide a written notification to the employer documenting that you are the subject of AI generated NCII produced by Civitai and currently circulating on Google. Include the legal action underway and request that the employer take no adverse action while removal proceeds.
4. 04
   Document the Civitai source attribution Civitai itself does not generate images, but hosts the model files used by other tools. Civitai model identification appears in metadata of images generated using a downloaded Civitai model. This attribution evidence is critical for the legal record and supports stronger statutory claims regardless of which specific action you pursue.
5. 05
   Coordinate with Google platform removal Google accepts NCII removal requests through its dedicated NCII removal form for Search and Images. Approved requests result in URL deindexing from Google Search results within 12 hours typically.
6. 06

• Google's NCII removal form is the most reliable single point of leverage in the open web. Approved removals also propagate to Google's broader index which suppresses discovery across Discover and News surfaces.
• Civitai attribution: Civitai is a Delaware entity with a published trust and safety policy and an NCII reporting form. Direct policy reports for celebrity LoRAs and adapters trained on identifiable individuals have produced removals.
