TL;DR
- The Tech Transparency Project (TTP) found 55 apps on Google Play and 48 on Apple's App Store that can create nonconsensual sexualized images.
- These apps have been downloaded over 705 million times worldwide and generated $117 million in revenue.
- Google has suspended several apps, and Apple has removed 28, though some were later restored.
- This issue is similar to a previous report in 2024 that prompted responses from Apple and Google.
- The TTP report follows calls for the removal of X and Grok after Grok generated millions of nonconsensual sexualized images.
- Grok and X are under investigation in the EU and UK and face a lawsuit from a victim.
- While some apps from the TTP report were addressed, X and Grok remain available on app stores.
