- On April 14, 2025, Meta filed a lawsuit in Hong Kong against Joy Timeline HK Limited for running ads promoting CrushAI, an AI app that creates nonconsensual nude images.
- The lawsuit follows investigations that revealed Joy Timeline repeatedly violated Meta's policies by circumventing ad review processes and running thousands of harmful AI nudify ads.
- Since early 2025, Meta's expert teams disrupted four distinct networks of accounts promoting AI nudify services and developed technology to detect ads lacking explicit nudity.
- Reports found over 8,000 CrushAI-related ads ran in the first two weeks of 2025, mostly on Facebook and Instagram, with Meta sharing over 3,800 unique URLs with other tech companies.
- Meta stated this legal action shows their commitment to combatting platform abuse and pledged to continue using legal and technical measures to protect their community from AI misuse.
