Privacy on Social Media: The company has launched a special open-source software tool to prevent content violating terrorism, child abuse and other rules coming on Meta’s platform. The name of this software tool is HMA i.e. Hasher-Matcher-Actioner. This tool will be helpful in identifying infringing content on the platform and take necessary action against it. The HMA software is built on the lines of the company’s previous open-source image and video matching software.
Gets permission to create own database
Meta also pointed out that the HMA tool allows platforms to build and run their own databases. Along with this, access is also available to operate the hash database. With the help of this tool, it will be very easy for the platform to identify and remove content that violates the rules.
