nudify

Apps or sites that use AI to make a fake nude image from a normal photo of someone.

Some guys in our grade were passing around a nudify app.

For parents and educators

The photos are often taken from public social media. Using one on a classmate creates illegal material in Canada, even if it is fake, and it is used to humiliate and extort. Talk with your child before it comes up, including boys, who are often the ones pressured to share.

If you’re worried

If your child is targeted, keep calm, do not share the image, and report to Cybertip.ca and the police. NeedHelpNow.ca helps with getting images removed. Kids Help Phone: 1-800-668-6868 or text 686868.

Where it came from

Spread with AI image tools from around 2023. Behind most fake nude cases in schools.
