(12.1.2018) Facebook attended this joint action in The Hague, standing by its stated commitment „to remove terrorists and posts that support terrorism“ whenever they become aware of them and „make their platforms a hostile place for terrorists“.
This coordinated action against online terrorist propaganda focused mainly on the online production of terrorist materials by IS and al-Qaeda affiliated media outlets. Among the items referred were propaganda videos and publications glorifying or supporting terrorism and extremism. The final removal of the referred material is a voluntary activity by the concerned social media platforms, taking into consideration their own terms and conditions.
