Now, it has released another initiative that could further protect its users. According to Gadgets Now's latest report, Facebook rolled out its new anti-child abuse content initiative together with a video, which displays the negative effects of these child abuse posts.
"We want to foster a safe and supportive environment on Facebook and Instagram and we're constantly working towards that," said Head of Policy Programs and Outreach Madu Sirohi.
"While we invest heavily in people and technology to identify and remove this kind of content even before people see it, we also want to spread awareness on the appropriate behavior," he added.

Aside from the new anti-child abuse content initiative, Mark Zuckerberg also confirmed that the company is also testing the new Live Audio Rooms in the United States.
Facebook's CEI said that the new audio product will work as Clubhouse's clone or competitor. Tech Crunch reported that it will be available on both Facebook's official app and Facebook Messenger. Just like Clubhouse, this new feature is expected to be used by popular people during their conferences.
