Apple and Google Hit With Demand to Pull AI 'Nudify' Apps

A San Francisco City Attorney sent cease-and-desist letters to Apple and Google demanding the removal of 13 AI face-swap apps. These tools, found on the App Store and Play Store, are used to generate nonconsensual nude images. The attorney argues that by processing in-app payments, both companies are aiding and abetting the sale of explicit deepfakes. The office describes this practice as illegal and harmful, urging both tech giants to sever ties with the developers.
