The terrorist's live broadcast was viewed about 4,000 times in total before being removed from Facebook.
Facebook has said that no users reported the Christchurch shooting footage as it was being broadcast live last Friday, despite it being viewed up to 200 times.
According to Facebook, company moderators removed about 1.5 million videos of the attack globally. More than 1.2 million of those videos were blocked at upload and never seen. Sonderby said yesterday that Facebook took action by designating the shootings as terrorist attacks. That meant any “praise, support and representation” of the events was not permitted on the platform. Tarrant’s personal accounts, including on Instagram, were swiftly removed.
