“We’re focused on building a community that keeps people safe. That means building technology and AI tools to prevent harm. Today we’re rolling out new tools to prevent “revenge porn” from being shared on Facebook, Messenger and Instagram. Revenge porn is any intimate photo shared without permission.
It’s wrong, it’s hurtful, and if you report it to us, we will now use AI and image recognition to prevent it from being shared across all of our platforms.”
