Wasn't the entire premise of the modern digital panopticon to stop exactly this kind of stuff?

Meta is not really a business. It's a tool used by agencies for surveillance. It's paid by tax payer at the end of the day. All this drama just to tax the people.

Im amazed that nobody spots the simple answer and cause that gives water to sprout this and many other problems. Ban third party advertising.

To be really, really fucking clear, it's not just "failed to catch" it's, "even when reported, failed to do anything about". I got ads, reels that were not-at-all veiled hints at CSAM. "Report: CSAM" "We reviewed your report and determined that the content does not breach our policy."
