To combat ‘revenge porn’, Facebook is now asking users to send in their nudes, to test a new anti-revenge porn technology.
According to the Daily Mail, sending your nudes to Facebook will stop the so-called ‘revenge porn’ phenomenon:
- The trial requires users to send naughty pictures to themselves via Facebook Messenger.
- Ms Grant said: ‘It would be like sending yourself your image in email, but obviously this is a much safer, secure end-to-end way of sending the image without sending it through the ether.’
- Once the image has been sent, Facebook will then ‘hash’ the image – create a digital fingerprint or link.
- Ms Grant explained: ‘They’re not storing the image, they’re storing the link and using artificial intelligence and other photo-matching technologies.
- ‘So if somebody tried to upload that same image, which would have the same digital footprint or hash value, it will be prevented from being uploaded.’
- If the technology works , the photo should never appear on Facebook.
