File a hash with StopNCII.org for cross platform prevention (FaceApp content on Bluesky)

Why this matters for FaceApp content on Bluesky

• Russian development origin places significant data privacy concerns on FaceApp use, particularly around the licensing terms for uploaded photographs.
• 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.
• FaceApp content distributed through Bluesky typically reaches between four and twelve additional platforms within 72 hours through reposts, mirrors, and cross platform redistribution.
• Source attribution to FaceApp is critical for file Stop NCII hash 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 FaceApp fingerprint indicators including faceapp outputs use a recognizable filter aesthetic and do not produce explicit content. Local copy of the original content or a high quality copy retrieved before removal
2. 02
   Run a biometric scan to find every copy across platforms FaceApp content distributed on Bluesky 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 FaceApp variations.
3. 03
   Submit the perceptual hash to StopNCII.org Generate the perceptual hash on your own device using the StopNCII.org tool. Submit only the hash, not the image itself. The hash will be propagated to Bluesky and other StopNCII.org partner platforms within 48 hours.
4. 04
   Document the FaceApp source attribution FaceApp outputs use a recognizable filter aesthetic and do not produce explicit content. FaceApp output appearing in NCII context indicates secondary processing through another tool. 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 Bluesky platform removal 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.
6. 06
   File the complete evidence record for the legal track StopNCII.org operates under the legal framework of the Revenge Porn Helpline (UK) provides the foundational legal basis for this action. Document every notice sent, every platform response, and every confirmation in a single evidence file. ScanErase produces this Verified Removal Package automatically as your case progresses.

Legal context

• StopNCII.org operates under the legal framework of the Revenge Porn Helpline (UK)
• Participating platforms enforce hash matches under their own terms of service
• Bluesky crossed the covered platform threshold in 2025. The platform's open architecture means TAKE IT DOWN Act notices should be filed both with Bluesky and with any third party appView indexing the content.
• FaceApp attribution: FaceApp itself is rarely the source of NCII. Removal of FaceApp output that appears in harmful context typically targets the secondary tool that added the explicit modification.
