SAN FRANCISCO: Facebook on Wednesday said that its software is getting more skilled at spying banned content at the social network, then working with humans to quickly remove terrorist videos and more. Facebook has more than 35,000 people working on safety and security, and spends billions of dollars annually on that mission, according to Zuckerberg. Facebook has terrorism experts as part of a team of more than 350 people devoted to preventing terrorist groups from using the social network, according to head of global policy management Monika Bickert. With a rule change early this year, Instagram began removing references to non-graphic content related to people hurting themselves from its searches and recommendation features. The measures were meant to make such images more difficult to find for depressed teens who might have suicidal tendencies.
