Remove screen recorded call content from Bing
Intimate content from a video call you believed was private has been screen recorded and distributed online. Bing typically responds to NCII notices in under 24 hours.
Tldr
Intimate content from a video call you believed was private has been screen recorded and distributed online. The recording itself is illegal in many jurisdictions in addition to the distribution being NCII. Bing is a search platform with approximately 1200 million monthly users. Bing typically responds to NCII notices in under 24 hours. Removal from Bing is among the more straightforward processes. A single statutory notice is typically sufficient.
Why this happens on Bing
- Bing serves as the search backend for Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, and ChatGPT Search. A single successful removal at Bing propagates to multiple downstream search surfaces.
- Most video calling apps do not notify participants when the other party screen records. FaceTime, Zoom, Google Meet, and Snapchat all permit silent recording.
- Screen recording of intimate calls is frequently used as a control tactic by partners or as a prelude to sextortion. The recording itself may have occurred months before the distribution.
- Cross platform spread is the rule, not the exception. Content first appearing on Bing typically reaches between four and twelve additional platforms within 72 hours through reposts, mirrors, and screenshot redistribution.
The takedown process
What to do, step by step
-
01
Document every instance before reporting Capture full page screenshots with the URL bar visible, the posting account handle, and the upload timestamp. The full call history showing the date, time, and other participant of every relevant call
-
02
Run a biometric scan to find every copy across platforms Content first appearing on Bing rarely stays there. ScanErase indexes 2.4 billion face embeddings across 200 plus platforms and identifies every current hosting location in a single scan, including AI generated derivatives.
-
03
Dispatch the takedown notice to Bing Bing accepts NCII removal requests through Microsoft's content removal form. Approved requests result in deindexing from Bing Search and Bing Images, and the same removal also applies to Yahoo Search.
-
04
Do not contact the ex partner before notices are filed Do not delete the call history or block the perpetrator's number before evidence is preserved. The call records establish the underlying recording event. All communication during the active removal phase should be through counsel. The ex partner's behavior during this period is critical evidence.
-
05
Deindex from search alongside source removal Search engine deindexing is independent of source removal. File the Bing NCII removal request even if the underlying source has been taken down, because cached and thumbnail copies persist on the search engine for weeks after the source is gone.
-
06
File a police report and preserve the legal record 47 USC 223a TAKE IT DOWN Act for distribution provides the federal basis for the takedown. Document every notice sent, every platform response, and every removal confirmation in a single evidence file. ScanErase produces this Verified Removal Package automatically as your case progresses.
Legal context
- Microsoft's NCII compliance is among the most consistent of any major platform. Bing removal also influences ChatGPT Search visibility because ChatGPT Search is powered by the Bing index.
- 47 USC 223a TAKE IT DOWN Act for distribution
- State recording consent statutes which require all party consent in 12 states
- Capture the Bing search query, the result URL, and any image thumbnails. Bing's image cache is updated less frequently than Google's, so cached images may persist longer after removal.
Frequently asked questions
How long will Bing actually take to remove the content?
Bing typically responds in approximately 16 hours when a properly formatted statutory notice is filed. ScanErase files the notice within 5 minutes of authorization and tracks compliance through your Verified Removal Package.
What if the perpetrator re uploads the content after removal?
Bing retains hash signatures of removed NCII content which prevents identical re uploads to the same platform. A follow-up ScanErase scan checks for re uploads across all 200 plus indexed platforms, so you can file a new notice as soon as matches reappear.
I searched my video call was recorded and found this guide. Will using ScanErase reveal my identity to Bing or anyone else?
ScanErase processes all data confidentially. Notices to Bing contain only the information required by 47 USC 223a, which does not include details beyond the affected URLs and your verified identity. Your scan and removal process is not disclosed to employers, family, or any third parties.
