A New Study Claims Facebook Is Unknowingly Generating Terror Content

A new study released on Thursday shows that terrorist groups are active on Facebook and the social media company may be unwittingly generating terrorist content.

A five-month study by the National Whistleblowers Center analyzed the pages of 3,000 members that had connections to terrorist organizations, and found that ISIS and al-Qaeda are openly networking on the platform, according to Agence France-Presse (AFP).
