Meta has the worst reporting system and I may have touched on it here before.

I was flipping through IG and was shown Aaron Bushnell’s full video. I reported it through the app and a little while later my case was updated. It said the video meets community guidelines and was left up.

I can imagine the same reporting system not legitimately taking down posts of drug sales, prostitution, and anything else illegal. I have a hunch they use some sort of automated process of scanning videos or pictures and go off of that.

I’ll also add I’ve been shown videos of dead bodies in the trenches of Ukraine, reported those, and they say that the videos don’t violate their guidelines.
