Fact:
On April 3, 2017, the day Vladimir Putin was due to visit the city, a suicide bombing was carried out in the St. Petersburg metro, killing 15 people and injuring 64. An al-Qaeda affiliate, Imam Shamil Battalion, claimed responsibility.
CEP Senior Advisor Dr. Hany Farid discusses the failure of Facebook to prevent more than 300,000 copies of the New Zealand massacre video from being reuploaded. "The repeated uploading is an absolute failure and its inexcusable because we have the technology to stop it. And if your technology isn't working, then you haven't innovated enough. You can't claim this is hard problem, it's the same video. It's the same video, how can this be that hard of a problem? I simply don't buy that argument."
