A BBC investigation found 100 "sexualised images of children" on Facebook. Auntie Beeb reported the images to Facebook, who found over 80% of them to be "not in breach of their guidelines" - despite one of them including a still from a child abuse video with a label requesting viewers "share child pornography."
The twist is that when the BBC followed up on this failure, Facebook reported the BBC [businessinsider.com] to the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre for "distributing images of child exploitation".
How can Facebook expect users to help them police their content when reporting abuse gets the users accused of the abuses they are reporting?
