Undercover footage exposes the seriously disturbing way Facebook moderates content

Facebook has come under fire after a UK documentary exposed some of the disturbing practices at a company responsible for moderating its content.

Footage for Channel 4's latest Dispatches episode Inside Facebook: Secrets of the Social Network was gathered by an undercover reporter who went to work at CPL Resources in Dublin, Ireland — a facility that's worked with the social media giant for the past eight years. A video of a toddler being physically abused and a racist meme are just two examples of content that moderators chose not to take down from the site.
