Meta Launched Take it Down Tool: Well-known social media company Meta has launched ‘Take it Down’ tool for the users. With the help of this tool, nude content will be prevented from being circulated on the platform. This tool is operated by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. The purpose of launching this tool is to reduce the cases of sextortion and to maintain the privacy of the people. Know how it works.
Old photos will also be blocked
With the help of this tool, photos uploaded in the past can also be removed from the platform and prevented from spreading. Nowadays, nude content circulates fast on social media and due to this people are blackmailed etc. The number of Internet users in India is very high and some percentage of this population is of those who are below 18 years of age. Children use social media a lot and they easily get trapped in anyone’s trap and then people take advantage of this wrongly. But now all this is about to come to an end. If a user reports a photo with the help of Take It Down tool, then a digital fingerprint of that photo is created which is called Hashes. In a way, your photo is converted into code and then no one can see it. The good thing about this tool is that once the photo is reported, all the similar photos on the platform will not be opened. Means it will be blocked. Also, if a person tries to upload that photo on the platform, then that too is not possible.
Meta told that this tool will be launched in India by the end of this year in Hindi and in the coming time it will be seen in other regional languages as well.
But here’s the trick
One screw in this tool is that if someone saves your nude picture and edits it and uploads it on the platform, then in that case this image will not be blocked because this tool considers this image as new and cannot identify it. Finds. For this you will have to report this image again and then it will not circulate.
