Notes on meta’s instagram and illicit child content

WSJ: “Instagram Connects Vast Pedophile Network”

Top takeaways from the report:

1. Instagram’s algorithms actively promote illicit content.

As reported by the WSJ: “Pedophiles have long used the internet, but unlike the forums and file-transfer services that cater to people who have interest in illicit content, Instagram doesn’t merely host these activities Instagram connects pedophiles and guides them to content sellers via recommendation systems.”

“Even glancing contact with an account in Instagram’s pedophile community can trigger the platform to begin recommending that users join it.”

2. Instagram allows explicit hashtags which connect users to accounts that advertise child-sex material for sale.

“The researchers found that Instagram enabled people to search explicit hashtags such as #pedowhore and #preteensex and connected them to accounts that used the terms to advertise child-sex material for sale.”

David Sacks:

Party affiliation is now entirely correlated with trust in MSM. Republicans realize it’s propaganda. Independents are on the path. Democrats are the people still plugged into the Matrix.
