“This is the AI men actually use”: Meta ads pushed apps nudifying real teens
Meta took days to remove ads containing AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM) on Facebook and Instagram. Some ads featured photos of real kids, including a press photo of a young member of a European royal family and images swiped from a popular Instagram profile of a preteen girl deemed an influencer.

Meta failed to promptly remove hundreds of ads on its platforms that contained child sexual abuse material generated by AI, according to an investigation by a transparency group. The ads promoted applications designed to digitally alter images of real children, including some taken from public social media profiles and official photos, without consent. This matters because the Justice Department has clarified that AI-generated child sexual abuse material carries the same legal and harm implications as non-AI versions, and Meta's delayed or inconsistent responses to reported violations may be undercounting instances of abuse. The investigation also found that Meta's ad approval process, which the company claimed it had recently improved for child safety purposes, continued to allow such content to run for days after being flagged.
