Facebook is up Against a Tide of Hate Speech
Content Moderation
The social network released new data on what and how much it is deleting today. New metrics included deletions of posts showing illegal firearms and drugs, but their numbers did not come close to those of hate speech.
Facebook claims that it is deleting almost 100 percent of posts containing terrorist propaganda, graphic violence, nudity and child pornography as well as spam and fake accounts before users flag them. For hate speech, as well as regulated goods, the social network still relies on user input to a higher degree but is growing more proactive. Facebook was the slowest to delete posts concerning bullying and harassment, with only 14 percent of posts deleted before they were reported.
