Facebook has switched off some child abuse detection tools in Europe following new rules set by the EU.
The company has insisted it had no choice because the new privacy directive has banned automatic scanning of private measures.
The change only applies to its messaging services rather than content uploaded to Facebook, and as noted by BBC, there is no change in the UK, where measures remain consistent with applicable laws .
In a blog post, Facebook said: The European Commission and child safety experts have said that the directive does not provide a legal basis for these tools.
