Report to the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center (Dezgo content on Threads)

Why this matters for Dezgo content on Threads

• No account requirement and no content filtering make Dezgo a significant entry point for casual NCII creation.
• Threads cross posts to Instagram which doubles distribution surface. The platform's connection to ActivityPub also means content can federate to Mastodon instances and require additional notices.
• Dezgo content distributed through Threads typically reaches between four and twelve additional platforms within 72 hours through reposts, mirrors, and cross platform redistribution.
• Source attribution to Dezgo is critical for report to FBI 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.

3. 03
   File the IC3 complaint with full evidence File at ic3.gov with the complete evidence package. The complaint should specifically cite the Dezgo attribution and the Threads distribution. Reference the unknown jurisdiction of the source service to support investigation routing.

Legal context

• 47 USC 223a as the underlying federal NCII statute
• 18 USC 875 for interstate threat communications when sextortion is involved
• Meta's NCII compliance pipeline applies to Threads with the same accelerated processing. The cross platform hash blocking is unique to Meta and produces fast multi platform results.
• Dezgo attribution: Anonymous service operation prevents direct legal correspondence. Removal proceeds through the redistribution layer under 47 USC 223a and through Cloudflare abuse reporting where applicable.
