Protect your platform from liability by detecting and removing content that promotes or facilitates sex trafficking.
The Allow States and Victims to Fight Online Sex Trafficking Act (FOSTA) and the Stop Enabling Sex Traffickers Act (SESTA) are U.S. laws that create exceptions to Section 230 immunity for platforms that knowingly facilitate sex trafficking.
Platforms can be held liable for third-party content that promotes or facilitates sex trafficking, making proactive content moderation essential.
Tools to detect and remove trafficking-related content
Identify visual and textual signals commonly associated with sex trafficking content.
Detect content that appears to advertise commercial sexual services.
Enhanced detection for content that may involve minors in exploitative contexts.
Maintain records of detected content and moderation actions taken.
Immediate notification when potential trafficking content is detected.
Integration support for reporting to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.
Detection of imagery commonly associated with commercial sex advertising and trafficking.
Recognition of coded language and terminology used in trafficking contexts.
Identification of location-based patterns common in commercial sex advertising.
Signals that may indicate coercion or lack of consent in depicted scenarios.
FOSTA-SESTA creates an exception to Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which previously provided broad immunity to platforms for user-generated content.
Platforms can now face federal and state criminal charges, as well as civil liability, if they knowingly facilitate sex trafficking through their services.
Proactive content moderation demonstrates good faith efforts to prevent trafficking content and reduces legal exposure.
