Facebook has published figures showing the amount of controversial content it removed in the first quarter of 2018. Amid the spread of fake news and increasing levels of inflammatory content circulating online, the social network has come under immense pressure, according to a recent article in Statista. That has resulted in it disclosing measures taken to remove posts violating its standards.

That content can be broken down into six categories: graphic violence, adult nudity and sexual activity, terrorist propaganda, hate speech, spam and fake accounts. Between January and March of this year, 837 million posts containing spam were removed from Facebook, accounting for 97 percent of all content taken down.
