Summary | Facebook and other social media have a huge problem with inappropriate or criminal content being posted to their platforms. Recently, a man in Ohio posted a video to Facebook of him shooting and killing a man. It took Facebook two hours to take it down. So far, artificial intelligence algorithms have been very successful in detecting nudity/pornography and blocking it but finding violent content is still very much dependent on user action.

Summary | Facebook have begun implementing new ways to combat the sharing of revenge porn on their platform. These changes stem from roundtable discussions with women's safety organizations. Revenge porn, the sharing of intimate photographs without permission after a breakup (or similar), is becoming increasingly frequent. Facebook can now take down such images very quickly once they're reported and keep users from sharing such images again.
