The TAKE IT DOWN Act contains an important provision to create a process for victims to report an actual or digital forgery exploitative image in which the child is depicted and request removal. Platforms would have 48 hours to remove the material or face financial penalties.
NCMEC’s Chief Legal Officer, Yiota Souras, discussed this critical provision at a recent
@HouseCommerce hearing. NCMEC encourages members of the House Energy and Commerce Committee to support the TAKE IT DOWN Act at tomorrow’s markup.
