CYBERSPACE—RedGIFs has announced that it has joined StopNCII.org, the global initiative that works to prevent the sharing of non-consensual intimate images online.
RedGIFs joins current StopNCII.org industry partners Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, and many others in the fight against intimate image abuse.
Since 2021 StopNCII.org has helped over 300,000 people create cases in the prevention of intimate images and videos from being shared online without consent. StopNCII.org uses world-first, on-device hashing technology that allows those being threatened with intimate image abuse the ability to create digital fingerprints of their images, (also known as "hashes"). Only hashes are shared with participating platforms, ensuring that the original images (or videos) never leave the user’s device.
To protect the user’s privacy, hashes are presented as a string of numbers and letters that cannot be reverse-engineered back to the original image (or video).
