Facebook Suggests Users Search For Child Pornography

Facebook has NOT had a good week…

There is, of course, all that data mining stuff going on…

And then there’s this… Which in my opinion is nearly as bad… and way, WAY grosser.

Facebook users have basically been ENCOURAGED to look at child porn…

And while Facebook claims it’s just a terrible mistake… it’s a pretty messed up mistake.

According to this:

Facebook has apologized for its search auto-fill function suggesting sexual acts, including with minors.

The Hill reported that Facebook users began posting images on social media of the search suggestions popping up when they typed “videos of” last week.

There were multiple references to sexual acts involving minors.

I’m sorry… but WTF?!?!

Are those the most POPULAR searches? Is everyone a freaking pedophile now?

Was someone messing with the search results?

I want to know HOW those became the search suggestions…

Because that doesn’t just “happen.”

Facebook released a statement apologizing for the issue.

“As soon as we became aware of these offensive predictions we removed them. Facebook search predictions are representative of what people may be searching for on Facebook and are not necessarily reflective of actual content on the platform,” the company said in a statement to The U.K. Guardian.

“We do not allow sexually explicit imagery, and we are committed to keeping such content off of our site,” Facebook added.

But their apology doesn’t count for jack SQUAT… because this is NOT the first time Facebook has seemingly endorsed pedophilia. In fact, they raised some eyebrows earlier this MONTH with some “controversial” questions…

Earlier this month, Facebook admitted to making another “mistake” when it sent a survey out questioning whether pedophiles requesting pictures on Facebook should be permitted.

“There are a wide range of topics and behaviors that appear on Facebook,” read one question, The Hill reported. “In thinking about an ideal world where you could set Facebook’s policies, how would you handle the following: a private message in which an adult man asks a 14-year-old girl for sexual pictures.”

Users were given answers to choose from ranging from the content should not be allowed to it “should be allowed on Facebook, and I would not mind seeing it.”

A follow-up question again involving an adult men soliciting a 14-year-old girl for explicit pictures gave the option for letting “Facebook users decide the rules by voting.”

WTF FACEBOOK?!!????

On what PLANET to Facebook users get to decide if they’re “chill” with pedophilia?!
