▲ 11 ▼ Meta Ran Hundreds of Paid Ads with Child Sexual Abuse Imagery (www.techtransparencyproject.org) submitted 2 months ago by beep@piefed.world to c/tech@piefed.world comment fedilink hide all child comments Meta has run more than 300 paid ads containing child sexual abuse material (CSAM) this year, a TTP investigation found. Most of the ads showed a photo of a child, which is digitally altered with AI to make it appear the child is performing a sex act. TTP identified multiple photos of real children, including a member of a European royal family, that were used in the ads. Several of the CSAM ads were placed by Meta’s own advertising partners in China, including a Chinese state-controlled company. The vast majority of the ads pointed to AI apps from China. Many of these apps were capable of “nudifying” people.
