Moreover, Meta added, “Of the other 419 reports where specialised review was needed, we reviewed content as per our policies, and we took action on 205 reports in total. The remaining 214 reports were reviewed but may not have been actioned.”  The company received 10,820 reports through the Indian grievance mechanism on Instagram. “Of these, we provided tools for users to resolve their issues in 2,461 cases,” Meta informed.

According to the new IT Rules 2021, big digital and social media platforms, with more than 5 million users, have to publish compliance reports every month.

In a statement, Meta said, “We measure the number of pieces of content (such as posts, photos, videos or comments) we take action on for going against our standards. Taking action could include removing a piece of content from Facebook or Instagram or covering photos or videos that may be disturbing to some audiences with a warning.”

As per its content moderation policies, “Meta uses technology and review teams to detect, review and take action on millions of pieces of content every day on Facebook and Instagram.”

The technology and review teams at Meta help in the reviewing and detection of potentially violating content and accounts. Then, it takes a three-part approach to content enforcement: remove, reduce and inform. Meta’s Facebook Community Standards highlight what is and isn’t allowed on Facebook and the Instagram Community Guidelines outline what is and isn’t allowed on Instagram. The content that goes against Meta’s policies is removed as soon as it is reviewed.
