Urgent Account Block Request
You may request an immediate block of an account on Phobits using the information below. A block of an account will prevent the contents of the account from being viewable on the Internet.
Phobits understands that it can be an urgent matter to remove offending content from the Internet. Seconds count when an offending image is circulating on the Internet. Urgent requests may involve child pornography, nonconsensual pornography, intellectual property protection, or other important needs to prevent offending content from being disclosed on the Internet.
Child Safety
If you are an adult and believe a child may be harmed from content on Phobits, please submit an urgent account block request using the information below. The account in question and its content will be immediately blocked pending further resolution of the matter. Blocking the account means no content from that account will be available for viewing or download.
You do not need to be the parent or legal guardian of the child to block an account containing child related material. You may be a friend, neighbor, babysitter, school faculty, clergy, law enforcement officer, social worker, or anyone who knows of such material and believes the child is in immediate danger.
Along with blocking an account, Phobits will also file appropriate reports to law enforcement agencies as required by law and by good moral conduct upon knowledge of any content pertaining to child endangerment including pornography, indications of kidnapping, and human trafficking.
Protecting Intellectual Property
Online violations of intellectual property can rise to the level of needing to urgently block online disclosure. If you have intellectual property disclosed on Phobits that you did not authorize, you may request that the offending information be immediately blocked pending further resolution. It is a violation of our Terms of Use to use Phobits to unlawfully disclose protected intellectual property.
