Facebook agrees to be more active related to service misuse

Social networking service Facebook has said that they are now going to change the way they handle complaints related to abuse of the site from the users.

They are going to take serious steps to protect children from sexual predators and inappropriate content on the service.

Facebook said that they are going to bring in a fast-track process for dealing with complaints about nudity, pornography and unwelcome approaches.

Andrew Cuomo, the New York attorney general spoke about the popular social networking scene on the web: “Social networking sites, popular among young people, have quickly gained members and appeal, but also act as a magnet for those who would prey on the young.”

Chris Kelly, Facebook’s chief privacy officer had this to say: “The attorney general pointed out some weaknesses in our complaint-handling process. What he has directed us to do is renew our vigilance around complaint handling.”
