Meta admits mistake over Instagram ads linked to child sexual abuse material
- Meta has admitted a mistake over child sexual abuse ads that appeared on Instagram in India, government sources said.
- The admission came after a BBC Eye report alleged that paid Instagram ads promoted child sexual abuse material.
- Meta has agreed to report child safety cases directly to India’s cybercrime authorities instead of routing them through a US-based organisation.
- The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights NCPCR is investigating the matter and has repeatedly summoned Meta India’s top executives.
