>    We've talked a lot recently about these standards and our use

>    reviewers. This is partly for safety reasons. As we saw with
>    the horrific shooting at YouTube's headquarters earlier this
>    year, content reviewers are subject to real danger that makes
>    us wary of sharing too many details about where these teams
>    are located or the identities of the people who review. The
>    day-to-day challenges our reviewers face and the obscurity of
>    their work often leads to confusion about what our reviewers
>    actually do and whether they're safe doing it. And in recent
>    weeks, more people have been asking about where we draw the
>    line for what's allowed on Facebook and whether our content
>    reviewers are capable of applying these standards in a fair,
>    consistent manner around the world. This post is an attempt to
>    dispel the mystery - to talk about how the process works, how
>    we train reviewers and how we enforce our standards
>    consistently.
