Report to the FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center (SoulGen content on Pornhub)

Why this matters for SoulGen content on Pornhub

• SoulGen accepts uploaded reference photographs which can be used to generate explicit content of identifiable individuals. This is the primary NCII vector for the service.
• Pornhub is among the most trafficked NCII destinations on the open web. Mirror sites repost content within hours, so removal from Pornhub alone is rarely sufficient without parallel removals from related domains.
• SoulGen content distributed through Pornhub typically reaches between four and twelve additional platforms within 72 hours through reposts, mirrors, and cross platform redistribution.
• Source attribution to SoulGen 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.

Legal context

• 47 USC 223a as the underlying federal NCII statute
• 18 USC 875 for interstate threat communications when sextortion is involved
• Pornhub operates under a 2020 consent agreement with major payment processors that requires verified identity for all uploads. Statutory notice combined with payment processor notification produces accelerated response.
• SoulGen attribution: Hong Kong operator jurisdiction makes direct civil action complex, but Apple App Store and Google Play Store policy violation reports have produced removal of the SoulGen mobile app in multiple regions.
