Photographer zemotion Calls Out Meta: Image Detection Works, Meta Just Chose Not to Use It
zemotion · x · 2026-09-10
Photographer zemotion criticized Meta over image moderation. Her argument:
- Image detection is now more accurate than humans, backed by existing studies and data
- She suspects Meta doesn't actually run detection on images because it's expensive and "they don't care about any of us"
- The result is personally offensive experiences and eroded trust — people conclude all detectors are unreliable
Her takeaway: Meta "can and should do better, but chose not to" — the real question is why.
