Big Tech and the Online Child Sexual Exploitation Crisis (QFR Responses)

QuestionPadilla asks about the measured impact of Meta's 2021 CSAM-search pop-up and viral-content safety-alert interventions, and what lessons Meta has drawn for the broader industry.

ResponseRather than quantifying the specific 2021 pop-up/safety-alert interventions' impact, Meta cites overall safety spend/headcount, its "Report It, Don't Share It" campaign, and broader industry initiatives (Lantern, Take It Down, Project Protect) as evidence of prevention progress and lessons for industry.
