Deepfakes of a teacher created by students on Tumblr

The combined situation

Students at the school where you teach have created AI deepfake intimate imagery of you, typically using publicly available faculty photographs, social media, or yearbook images. This conduct violates Title IX in both directions and warrants immediate union and administrative engagement. When this scenario plays out on Tumblr specifically, removal proceeds through the statutory takedown process under 47 USC 223a combined with the scenario specific response that school cases require.

Why this combination is high risk

Tumblr reblogs create persistent copies of content across hundreds of unrelated blogs. A single original post can have thousands of reblogs, each requiring a separate URL in the takedown notice. For teacher target deepfake cases, faculty photographs are typically required to be publicly accessible through the school directory, which makes them trivially available as ai generator input.

How removal proceeds

Tumblr accepts NCII reports through its content removal form and through its DMCA agent. The platform's 2018 adult content ban remains in effect, which means NCII reports also benefit from policy enforcement against any sexual content. Faculty deepfake cases benefit from union representation, contractual employment protections, and the school's strong incentive to demonstrate decisive disciplinary response.
