The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has sent compliance letters to major technology companies, including Amazon, Alphabet, and Apple, mandating adherence to the Take It Down Act (TIDA). The legislation requires platforms to remove non-consensual intimate imagery upon request and implement systems to prevent such content from being re-uploaded. By issuing these warning letters, the FTC aims to prompt voluntary compliance from various platforms—ranging from social media giants to dating apps like Bumble and Match Group—without resorting to immediate litigation, continuing a broader trend of increased regulatory scrutiny on Big Tech.
