CSER

Community Standards Enforcement Report

Meta's quarterly public transparency report of enforcement volumes. Internal threads show the argument over what it discloses: whether to release child-safety numbers ahead of "CSER v2" to prevent "the nuance being lost", and whether to limit the child-exploitative-imagery figure reported in it to Facebook only, "to avoid a step-change some time in the future when we lose access to private messaging".
