That part of the article says they allowed the video of animal abuse to remain visible so that law enforcement could do something about it. Of course, that's bullshit for many reasons.
Ban the user and the video, if the same video is posted again, autoban it. If the user is law-enforcent, allow them to see the details of all related content that was banned.
There are neat things called if-statemets that could do that.
- Cthulhu_ 7y agoYeah, I mean Facebook can open up a portal for all local and national police precincts and law enforcement that goes "This is the content that our systems and content moderators marked as illegal, this is the exact location, date, time it was recorded, our facial recognition software identified these and these individuals", etc. However, I just also described how Facebook could easily be used in a dystopian police state fashion. I am fairly sure they aren't allowed to proactively report crimes. And that law enforcement would be overwhelmed by the sheer amount of reports coming in all at once.
- Buttons840 7y agoAllegedly they are already altering their behavior to assist law enforcement. I'm not suggesting they put a lot of effort into helping, but being able to remove a video from the general public without stopping law enforcent investigations seems reasonable.
