you really think Google/Facebook/… can’t do it reliably? :-)


As an example, Facebook has a sordid history of leaving actual snuff movies up for days.


if there are no reprocussions businesses won’t do jacksh*t but if there were, FB/Google/… would solve any issue like this by the time teapot started whistling…

it is one thing to say they “can’t” vs. “the won’t cause they no reason to”


I mean they cannot do it _automatically_ with high certainty, which is why they hire companies to do it for them, who then make employees look at suspected problematic content / reported content.

I'm sure Google and Facebook wouldn't pay these companies if they could achieve similar results without them.
