US social media giants unite to fight terrorist propaganda

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 (PNA/Sputnik) -- Four US social media giants are uniting in an effort to counter the spread of terrorist recruitment and propaganda materials online, Facebook said in a press release.

According to the statement, Facebook, Microsoft, Twitter and YouTube are coming together to help curb the spread of terrorist content online.

"There is no place for content that promotes terrorism on our hosted consumer services," the release stated on Monday. "When alerted, we take swift action against this kind of content in accordance with our respective policies."

Each company will use a shared database of digital “fingerprints” to track down potential terrorism recruitment videos or images, the release added.

"Our companies will begin sharing hashes of the most extreme and egregious terrorist images and videos we have removed from our services — content most likely to violate all of our respective companies’ content policies," the release stated.

Each social media outlet, the release said, will continue to review any government requests and will retain its own appeals process related to removal decisions.

Facebook said it intends to respect its users and protect their privacy rights while it seeks to prevent the spread of terrorist content online. (PNA/Sputnik)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
