    Get leaked content removed from Telegram

    Telegram channels are a major leak vector. Copyright and NCII reports both work — here's how to reach them.

    Gather the links

    • Copy the t.me link to each offending message or channel (Message → Copy Link).
    • Note the channel @username.

    File the report

    Email dmca@telegram.org for copyright removals, or use Telegram's abuse/ NCII reporting for non-consensual intimate imagery. Include the t.me links, a statement of ownership, and your signature. Telegram acts on public channels; private ones are harder and may need the NCII route.

    Proactive blocking

    For private intimate images you never published, a free hash-matching service run by the UK Revenge Porn Helpline fingerprints the images on your own device and sends only the fingerprints, so its partner platforms can block re-uploads. Telegram is not one of those partners, and the service does not accept content you sell: for that, copyright notices remain the route.

    Work through it as a checklist

    2 steps

    Gather the links

    Your ticks are saved in this browser, on this device, and openDMCA never sees them. Seeing the same checklist ticked on your phone and your laptop needs an account, because a browser cannot sync to a device it does not know about. What an account costs.

    Automate all of this

    Skip the manual work — openDMCA detects leaks, files the notices, requests search delisting, and keeps re-checking for reuploads.
