The combined situation

A former partner has used your face photographs to generate AI deepfake intimate imagery and is distributing it without consent. The 47 USC 223a TAKE IT DOWN Act treats AI-generated NCII identically to authentic content, and your ex partner is liable both criminally and civilly. When this scenario plays out on Yandex specifically, removal proceeds through the statutory takedown process under 47 USC 223a combined with the scenario specific response that revenge cases require.

Why this combination is high risk

Yandex Images has historically had weaker filtering than Google or Bing, and surfaces results that are deindexed elsewhere. This makes Yandex a critical second pass for any NCII removal effort. For ex partner deepfake cases, ex partners commonly retain photographs from the relationship that are easily fed into ai nudify or face swap tools. the technical barrier is now under five minutes per image.

How removal proceeds

Yandex accepts removal requests through its abuse contact at copyright@yandex-team.ru. Yandex Images is particularly important because it indexes adult content that Google and Bing exclude. Ex partner deepfake cases benefit from the documented relationship history because the source photographs establish access and motive simultaneously.
