Congresswoman Wagner brought up that 16.8 million of 18.4 million reports of child sexual abuse content are on Facebook and that 70% of these valuable reports would be lost if Facebook implements end-to-end encryption. Wagner followed this up by asking Mark Zuckerberg what Facebook would do to shut this type of behavior down.

Zuckerberg also stated that Facebook is working closely with law enforcement and building technology to identify these cases, before being cut off by Wagner who argued Facebook wasn’t working hard enough.
