Pastebin and similar text-hosting services are used in two ways in NCII cases. First, perpetrators post direct links to intimate images hosted elsewhere, amplifying distribution. Second, they post personal information, name, address, workplace, social media links, alongside descriptions or links to intimate content, which constitutes doxxing and harassment in addition to NCII violations.

The ScanErase tool scans for any references to your face or personal information on platforms, including Pastebin. This discovery helps you understand where your images may be and provides you with valuable insights.

If your personal information has been posted alongside intimate content, you may also have claims under your state's doxxing and cyberstalking statutes. Many states have enacted specific doxxing prohibitions that carry criminal penalties. ScanErase finds and reports all relevant content to assist you in taking action.
