I have been following this story for years, even before Google bought Youtube. It is hard to imagine a solution.
This is such a hard problem to sort out. On one hand, Facebook and other social media, are predicated on the ability for the public to share content. On the other hand, there are people sharing traumatizing content which cannot be filtered using machines only. Some of this content is so horrific that it must not be described.
What can Facebook or Youtube do besides hire people to filter the content? Should they curate people, allowing only approved people to share content? Who, then, is allowed to be approved? Who does the approving? How are they approved?
It is opening a Pandora's box for FB and YT to even talk about this. So, they make empty statements and move on. Anything beyond tackling this head on will be seen as criminal.
