Summary:

The report, covering October 2017 to March 2018, found that the prevalence of graphic violence and nudity and sex rose in the first three months of this year compared with the prior three months. Facebook said it could not estimate the prevalence of posts promoting terrorism or hate speech or containing spam. But it said it took action on more content for those reasons in the first quarter than in the fourth quarter of 2017; such action can include removing a post, slapping a warning label on it, or hiding the content from underage users.
