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

QuestionTillis asks how Meta will track and address CSAM as end-to-end encryption rolls out, given the concern that reporting numbers will drop while the underlying problem persists.

ResponseMeta describes its three-pillar approach to encrypted-messaging safety (prevent, control, respond quickly), including default-private teen accounts, restrictions on adult-to-teen messaging, on-device nudity detection in DMs, and machine-learning detection of suspicious adult behavior using unencrypted signals — while declining to detail its enforcement methods to avoid tipping off bad actors.
