The independent oversight board for Meta Platforms Inc. announced on Thursday that starting this month, it will have the option to apply warning screens and designate certain content as “sensitive” or “disturbing.”
A warning screen would be applied when “leaving up or restoring qualified content,” including images and videos, according to the board, which can currently examine user appeals to have information removed.
Separately, the board stated in its quarterly transparency report that during the second quarter that concluded on June 30, it received 347,000 requests from Facebook and Instagram users all around the world.
