Facebook - Page 1

They need to do something.  Posting live streaming murders and hanging of an infant is ridiculous.  They also need to have real live people look into some of the complaints they have.  I was complained about because the complainer couldn't figure out if I was male or female by my Facebook name and my avatar of my dogs.  So I had to change it "to reflect a real world name".  My old name was my last name broken up into two syllables sheesh lol.

Those ridiculous live streams have been the exact thing that have helped police, identify, locate and arrest criminals.

How is that bad?

I never said stop the live streaming VK, I do believe there needs to be more oversight.  There is no excuse to allow the live streaming of a father hanging his infant daughter to remain up for hours throughout the infant's horrific death, because apparently it took some time for her to die.  How about the live streaming of horrific animal tortures such as the skinning of a live dog laughing as it screamed?  Setting a live rat on fire and streaming its death? Swinging a puppy around by the neck and slamming it into the ground?  You don't think there should be oversight?  I mean these streams were up for HOURS with tens of thousands of "Likes".  You can take it off the air and still catch the criminal, there is no need to leave it up for hours.

What sort of sick fuck gives a "Like" to ANY of those ?

I can understand why stuff stays up for hours. If Facebook or YouTube had to monitor everything live with a human it would cost so much money to post and read anything the internet would literally cease.

You know it's all run by algorithms right and not people.

 

Google the YouTube adpocalypse to see how little human involvement goes into it. The post adpocalypse is going to be new algorithms, they literally can't preview content.

Facebook, and the other 'social media', cannot preview content, no. But they can and do have algorithms which they can, and do, use (often very quickly) to pinpoint content in order to target advertising at the originator of that content. The real issue here is why they can't act so (i.e.more) quickly in the case of pinpointing content that ought to be very quickly deleted.
We know its not thousands of elvish people sitting in rooms and clicking through everybody's posts.
The 'will' to do something is of uppermost importance.

Facebook on the other hand is now cracking down on user names.  One MUST use first and last name that appears on legal documents, NO MATTER WHAT.  Doesn't matter if it is a matter of safety that the person is using a variation of their name.  However, the enforcement is sporadic with a few really targeted while others who use pseudonyms and some of them offensive, are left alone.......

How so, there are Facebook accounts of dogs.
