The combined situation

SwapFace is a real time face swap service that supports live video conferencing applications. It enables face swap for Zoom, Discord video, and OBS streaming. When SwapFace output appears on Google, 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

Real time face swap creates novel harm vectors including impersonation in business video calls and intimate partner deception. On Google specifically, 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.

How removal proceeds

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. Source attribution to SwapFace is documented through swapface real time output displays characteristic latency artifacts including occasional face misalignment during rapid head movement, which strengthens the takedown notice and supports parallel legal action.
