Meta has fixed a glitch that caused violent and graphic videos to appear in Instagram Reels, despite users enabling the platform’s “sensitive content control” setting.
The issue, which affected users globally, has been resolved by Meta, but the company did not disclose the cause or the number of impacted users.
Despite having the sensitive content control setting enabled, users reported encountering objectionable content.
Meta's moderation policies have faced scrutiny, and the company has been increasingly relying on automated tools for content moderation.
