Hope you are well. We are finalizing the wording in our root cause analysis and would love for you to read over these statements and confirm their accuracy. These statements will be read through in our cause mapping portion of the presentation and we have put these statements in sentence form simply for ease of validation. We appreciate your help! 1. Adult bad actors were successful in sextorting minors and adults on IGDM because we did not proactively detect these bad actors or their violating content and conversations in IGDM. This is because our MMS banks are largely ineffective in catching this type of content since, unlike adults, minors do not currently have a means of banking their own imagery to help prevent further victimization. 2. Reactive reporting by victims, including multiple reports from individual users, did not result in human review of messages containing signals of CSAM, NCII and sextortion because user's reporting options do not allow for them to identify the harm in a way that prioritizes or ensures review of their report because we deprecated the contact form that formerly allowed users to specifically report sextortion because of lack of reviewer bandwidth.
