"Ringer" said : The Unstoppable Brutality of Facebook Live – The Ringer

referring to The Unstoppable Brutality of Facebook Live Facebook Live is changing its moderation policy in an attempt to curb the sharing of violence and crime on the platform. In Chicago, four people used Facebook Live to stream themselves torturing a mentally disabled man this past January; the same month, three men were arrested in Sweden after it was alleged that they raped a woman and streamed the attack on Facebook Live. In France, a person alleged to be a terrorist used Facebook Live to share the gory aftermath of a killing last summer. As Facebook employees welcomed guests to F8, the company's annual developers conference, on Tuesday, police scoured at least five states for a man who had used Facebook Live to pledge his intentions to kill someone. Where Facebook Live stands apart, uniquely culpable and capable, is in its sheer scope.

For instance, Henderson didn't report the animal abuse at the time of the incident. He also heard from other people that Stephens abused other pets, too:"He was that way before he got that bird. Please respect our privacy at this time."Stephens's case will be entered into the FBI database with information on his alleged animal abuse. The first report regarding animal abuse and violent crime will be published by the FBI later this year.

Where does Facebook Live go from here?
It will take awhile for Facebook Live content creators who aren't already well known to build brands and channels, and to create consumption habits among audiences. The Washington Post published a story on Sunday's murder under the headline "Facebook wanted 'visceral' live video. It's getting live-streaming killers and suicides." To put it simply, is Facebook Live worth the trouble it's generating for the world's largest social media network? The case that worries me the most is suicide or attempted suicide, as there have been many broadcasts of this nature on Facebook Live already. It is interesting that Mark Zuckerberg, in speaking with BuzzFeed during the mass rollout of Facebook Live, used the words "visceral" and "raw" several times in his interview.
