On October 7, 2026, Meta announced the deployment of new AI tools aimed at detecting child exploitation content on its platforms. The company reported taking action on 5.3 million pieces of child abuse content in India during the first half of 2026.
This initiative aims to enhance the safety of users, particularly children, on Meta's social media platforms.
