NCOSE's Dirty Dozen List names Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg, Snapchat among 10 others
1. Amazon
The online retailer Amazon made the Dirty Dozen List this year for reportedly continuing to host — and algorithmically surface — child-like sex dolls, which NCOSE noted is a violation of the company’s policies.
“It’s time for Amazon to enforce its policies, comply with the law, and take real, measurable action to stop the sale of child-like sex dolls,” the advocacy group declared.
Amazon, which previously appeared on NCOSE’s Dirty Dozen List in 2017 and 2018, temporarily stopped selling child-like sex dolls following years of advocacy work in the U.K., Australia and the U.S.
“In January 2021, only torso- or half-body dolls remained when checked by U.S.-based NCOSE staff. But over time, the lax enforcement led to the return of countless full-bodied sex dolls of both adults and apparent minors,” NCOSE stated. “Too often, Amazon’s fixes are temporary and self-serving: the platform repeatedly allows harmful products to return, addressing the issue only when public scrutiny forces action rather than implementing lasting, systemic safeguards.”
A researcher for NCOSE discovered over 20 sex dolls with child-like faces and body proportions on Amazon in December 2025. The dolls appeared under searches like “sex doll 14,” “young,” “petite” and “little.”
According to NCOSE, Amazon’s policies in the U.S. prohibit the use of any explicit sexual imagery in any listing or product detail page images. The advocacy group argued that the child-like sex dolls violate the company’s policies, which specifically prohibit portraying minors in a sexually suggestive or sexualized manner.
Multiple states — including Florida, Texas and South Dakota — have laws against child-sex dolls, yet Amazon continues to sell them, NCOSE noted.
“Allowing these items to remain for sale signals a profound failure of corporate responsibility, undermines state child-protection laws, and creates conditions where exploitative materials can circulate with impunity,” the advocacy group argued.
The anti-sexual exploitation group also contended that child-sex dolls are not harmless or neutral “fantasy outlets.” NCOSE cited a 2019 paper from the Australian Institute of Criminology, which stated that there is no evidence that child sex dolls have a therapeutic benefit in preventing child sexual abuse.”
Kritsi McVee, a former police detective and specialist child interviewer, also recalled that she saw child-like sex dolls in cases with child abusers. According to the former police detective, the offenders in these cases were already “consuming child sexual abuse material or had directly harmed children.”
