Doxing Prevention: Removing Photos Used to Locate and Harass You
Doxing attacks use your photographs to find and expose your personal information. When intimate images are also part of a doxing campaign, the TAKE IT DOWN Act provides an immediate legal pathway to remove them from hosting platforms.
Doxing combines multiple forms of personal information exposure. When intimate photographs are shared as part of a doxing campaign, the TAKE IT DOWN Act provides a direct legal tool to demand removal of the intimate imagery from hosting platforms within 48 hours. This is separate from the broader doxing situation, which may also involve your address, workplace, and personal information on other sites. ScanErase addresses the intimate imagery component.
