Facebook disables another 3 billion fake profiles

-

According to facebook's latest Enforcement report
It was estimated that for every 10,000 times people viewed content on Facebook,

  • 25 views contained content that violated it's violence and graphic content policy.
  • 25 views contained content that violated it's  violence and graphic content policy.
  • Less than three views contained content that violated each policy.




In a call with reporters,  Chief executive Mark Zuckerberg hit back against numerous calls to break up Facebook, arguing its size made it possible to defend against the network's problems.

"I don't think that the remedy of breaking up the company is going to address [the problem]," he said.

"The success of the company has allowed us to fund these efforts at a massive level. I think the amount of our budget that goes toward our safety systems... I believe is greater than Twitter's whole revenue this year."

How much content we took action on because it violated our Community Standards. Our actions include


  • Removing the content
  • Applying a warning screen to the content and Disabling accounts. 

  Fake Accounts
 The report also stated that more than 3 billion accounts were disabled between october 2018 and march 2019.

Over 95% of the content were taken action on before anybody reported it.


In the first quarter if 2019, 4 million hate speech posts were taken down and  efforts are still being made in order to invest in technology to expand their abilities to detect any mallacious content across different languages

Sound that can vapourize water discovered

-

Scientists have discovered what they believe is the loudest possible underwater sound. This sound is so powerful that it can vaporize water on contact. It is caused by a tiny water jet -- about half the width of a human hair -- being hit by an even thinner X-ray laser.You can't actually hear this sound, because it was created in a vacuum chamber. That's probably for the best, considering that, at around 270 decibels, these rumbling pressure waves are even louder than NASA's loudest-ever rocket launch (which measured about 205 decibels). However, you can see the sound's microscopically devastating effects in action, thanks to a series of ultra-slow-motion videos recorded at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park, California, as part of a new study. The pulsing laser immediately splits the water jet in two, vaporizing the fluid that it touches while sending powerful pressure waves wobbling down either side of the jet. These waves create more waves and,...

Internet connectivity has really taken multiple steps forward in the past year.  5G mobile network is a forthcoming revolution of mobile technology which provides broadband access. It might just sound like a upgrade from the existing 4G but, there is much more to know about it,  It will quite literally revolutionize cellular networks and will offer a seamless medium for communication. It started entering the market at the end of 2018. Its features and usability are amazing. PROS BLAZING FAST INTERNET   One of the advantages is the huge bump in high-speed data access that users would enjoy, once they get access to this. No, we are not talking about some 2 times increase in speeds but as much as 100 times more data speeds over the air. While a 4G network is capable of offering speeds of up to a maximum of 50 Mb/s, in 5G we are talking about Internet speed  that rates up to 10Gb/s or even higher. 100 TIMES MORE DEVICE HANDLING CAPACITY THAN 4G Whi...
