00:00 "United States Senators demand an explanation from Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg regarding an
00:06 Instagram warning screen.
00:08 They say potential child sex abuse material may appear behind it."
00:12 Zuckerberg is given 11 days to provide more information on the warning screen and how
00:16 Meta's platforms handle child sex abuse material.
00:20 The warning screen reportedly appears when one uses search terms bringing up potential
00:24 child sex abuse content.
00:27 The warning screen will either let the user turn away or see results anyway.
00:31 Choosing the latter option will allow the user to see the violative content.
00:36 The letter is a follow-up demand after a January 31 U.S. Senate hearing where Zuckerberg testified
00:41 along with officials from other social media platforms.
00:45 One senator accused the tech companies of having "blood on your hands" for failing
00:50 to protect children on the platforms.
