According to reports Google and Facebook have quietly started using automation to remove extremist content from their sites. Two of the biggest video streaming sites are taking this major step forward to eradicate violent propaganda from their sites. And they are also said to be under pressure to do so from governments around the world as attacks by extremists are increasing by the day. Along with Google and Facebook, Youtube is also said to be among the few sites which are deploying systems to block or rapidly take down Islamic State videos and other similar material from their websites. Though there is no official confirmation from the companies as yet, but there are strong reports doing the rounds that these practices are being implemented.
