The combined situation

DeepNude was the original 2019 nudify application that established the category. It was shut down by its developer after public outcry, but the model weights were leaked and now power dozens of clone services. When DeepNude output appears on Bluesky, removal proceeds through the statutory takedown process under 47 USC 223a combined with source attribution to strengthen the legal claim.

Why this combination is high risk

DeepNude derivative services proliferate under different names but produce visually identifiable output. Hash matching against known DeepNude derivative samples accelerates platform removal under 47 USC 223a. On Bluesky specifically, bluesky's open atproto network allows third party clients and appviews to display the same content. a removal from the official bluesky app does not always remove from third party clients.

How removal proceeds

Bluesky accepts NCII reports through its in app moderation flow and through its trust and safety email. The PDS architecture means content is hosted on individual personal data servers in addition to the network appView. Source attribution to DeepNude is documented through deepnude outputs and direct derivatives display a characteristic 512x512 base resolution upscaled to higher dimensions, producing a recognizable softness in fine detail, which strengthens the takedown notice and supports parallel legal action.
