The title is misleading. It's not entirely clear from the article what kinds of images were not removed, but the article does make clear some of the ones reported were not child abuse images.
It sounds like some of them were regular images of children, but with suggestive comments attached. Now, that's still against facebook's TOS, but not illegal.
Edit: title has been changed to reflect source title better.
- djsumdog 10y ago> pages explicitly for men with a sexual interest in children > images of under-16s in highly sexualised poses, with obscene comments posted beside them > groups with names such as "hot xxxx schoolgirls" containing stolen images of real children > an image that appeared to be a still from a video of child abuse, with a request below it to share "child pornography" That's what I thought. None of the above things are illegal (well, maybe the last one. IANAL). The 2nd one was common on Reddit's /r/jailbail subs before they shut them down. They most likely do violate Facebook's terms of service, but with their massive userbase, I bet these pop up and get removed faster than their staff can deal with them.
