#52Complying with legal requests, fighting child pornography is not optional. Unless you are of course Mastodon etc. I don’t understand the article it quotes unnamed “former” employees who might very well could have been the ones who got fired for improper access.
Rumour is Snapchat is one of the world's biggest repositories of child porn, and they don't do much about it because it's mostly sent by the children themselves and core to their business.
I would estimate 100 million pictures of underage genitals go in or out of Snapchats account on Google servers every day.
Google nearly kicked them off the platform for it, but money spoke too loudly...

#54Really shocked by the allegations. Has any unethical behavior like this ever happened in a Silicon Valley startup before? Would there have been any way to see this coming?
You're more than welcome to express an opinion about patterns of unethical behavior, but you'll have to do it much more substantively and thoughtfully than this. We've asked you many times to please increase the information in your posts—could you please try?
