They are as guilty as the perpetrator

Yeah I can understand what they are trying to say - But there is an Integral Part - Technically right But Morally WRONG! However there is very little legislation for these DATA COLLECTORS!

Artificial intelligence could apply a video stamp to everything loaded on a platform as its being uploaded. Hopefully they are working on something like this

It's still Censorship!

Facebook says it removed 1.5 million videos of Christchurch massacreCompany pulling all edited versions of footage and any ‘praise or support for the crime’ That's because the video has noticeable inconsistencies, which are leading people to question its authenticity. This is terrifying, NZ acted quickly but the fact that there was a market to view such carnage is more then disturbing!!

Opinion: Why the choice to publish the Christchurch attack video is potentially very dangerousA mass murder, presented through the murderer’s eyes, like something from a computer game. By turns horrifying, glorifying and somehow sanitising the deaths of 49 innocent people No censorship whatsoever. I take it Will Gore watched it Too late, and ridiculous. It was live, many saw it Inc me, so whether you post later is pretty much defunct.
