Facebook’s parent company, Meta Platforms Inc. has announced that it will open-source a new piece of software that will enable other internet companies to stop the dissemination of content related to terrorism, including violent and extremist images and videos, across the internet.
The tool is referred to as Hasher-Matcher-Actioner. In advance of Meta’s one-year chairmanship of the Global Internet Forum to Counter Terrorism, which starts in January, it will be distributed to other social media networks and internet service providers. As part of its efforts to stop the spread of terrorist content online, the HMA tool will reportedly be made freely available to other internet companies, according to Meta.
This is consistent with Meta’s own commitment to enhancing content moderation on its own platforms.
