Any idea what they mean by "community integrity"?



detecting porn, presumably.


I would expect it to work on detecting the mismatching of content for types of communities in general. For example, preventing pictures of cats or giraffes being uploaded as a product photo on Poshmark when it's supposed to be a pair of shoes.

That type of check should become standard in a short amount of time for all communities that accept photos (that isn't meant to be general purpose, eg Imgur).


For example marketplace (where you can sell items on Facebook) will suggest a category for the item if you upload a photo.


I can't wait for Facebook marketplace to fail. The constant stream of useless ads is obnoxious. I am using Facebook less because there is no way to block that low quality content


When could counterfeits be detected with a somewhat decent accuracy? Is it something that has been attempted?

I checked out Facebook Marketplace a few times since the launch and and everytime I'm just overwhelmed by the sheer amount of better or worse counterfeits.

On top of that I start getting notifications more counterfeits, for a short while I reported them but after a while it felt pointless and now I just ignore the marketplace tab.


A few craigslist competitors are using CV to detect drugs/weapons/animals.


Maybe you want to censor internally part of an image for privacy reasons.

For instance, in my country you cannot use or publish children images without parents consent.

The fine for doing that is way higher than your benefits even discounting bad press.


What country is that?
