One thing I'll give Facebook credit for in the case of content moderation is, Facebook is not decentralized like the Fediverse compared to on Lemmy, Misskey or Mastodon and etc.

Facebook has a whole centralized platform to moderate with all users. Compared to the Fediverse this moderation can be tough and very expensive. Facebook would have to pay a lot of moderators.

There are some problems known to occur however

There are some things that can slip through but with all this ai training more companies are moving towards ai moderation over human moderation that should reduce moderation costs and their profitability.

Some content Facebook doesn't seem to tackle unless a government complains to them, particularly if they know its something they know generates them money.

Facebook is able to make very accurate profiles of their users. Maybe they should just send someone to the address of the uploader of csam and other horrible stuff to break their legs.

In all earnest, the fact this issue is as big as it is on their platforms is only because for some reason they let it get this bad. If they want specific stuff off their platform they can just make that happen.. specifically by targeting the sources... In cooperation with law enforcement and or nasty lawyers and a court summons.
