Respondent not recorded
QuestionCiting an ADL survey showing only 14% of reported physical-threat content actually gets deleted (down from 22% the year before), Kelly asks why Facebook isn't investing more in moderation and protecting harassment targets.
ResponseFacebook cites its rising bullying/harassment enforcement volume (3.5M to 6.3M pieces of content quarter-over-quarter) and proactive-detection-rate improvement (26.4% to 48.8%), without directly addressing the specific 14%-of-physical-threats-removed statistic from the ADL survey.
