welcome to f8 in 2016 we were slow to identify Russian interference we're doing more we're requiring everyone requiring I'm running political and issue ads or running large pages to be verified with a government ID we're making ads more transparent by the end of this year we will have 20,000 people working on security and content review at Facebook we are focused on fighting fake news more broadly so a lot of the work over the last year and a half has been bringing on more and more fact-checking partners all around the world in different countries who speak all of the different languages that we need to cover I also want to talk about data privacy and what happened with Cambridge analytic I was a major breach of trust so we need to make sure that this never happens again so we're taking a number of steps here first as you all know we're restricting the data that developers will be able to request from people second we need to make sure that we find any other bad apps that are out there so we're currently in the process of investigating every single app that had access to a large amount of people's information before we made these big changes in 2014 so we're working on a simple control where you can clear your browsing history what you've clicked on the websites you visited and so on and we're gonna call it clear history you're gonna be able to use this tool to see the information about the apps and websites you've been directed with you'll be able to clear all this information from your account and you'll even be able to turn it off having this information stored with your account going forward so today we are announcing a new set of features coming soon around dating there's gonna be for building real long term relationships all right not just hookups if you want you can make a dating profile and we've designed this with privacy and safety in mind from the beginning you're only gonna be suggested people who are not your friends this is Jennifer she's just moved to Chicago she's interested in dating the first thing she would do here is set up a dating profile once she's done that she can go browse events and groups this will let her see things in the city and groups related to her interests then she can browse people were there say she wants to talk to Jay she'll start a conversation with a photo from his profile then if he wants to respond they'll do so in a private messaging inbox connected to the profile now let's talk about Instagram we're announcing video chat and Instagram you're gonna be able to just tap on a new camera icon right in the the top of any direct thread that you have and you're gonna build a video chat one-on-one or with groups you're gonna be able to minimize the video while you're chatting and using Instagram so here I am in Instagram first I'll swipe over to direct because that's where I already have conversations with my closest friends now let's say it's Saturday and I'm trying to figure out where we should go to brunch I tap this button to start a video chat and soon we're all able to hang out together now let's pretend I'm looking for some inspiration for where we should go I topped this button and soon the video player is minimized I swipe on over to feed and at this point people can still see and hear me but don't worry they can't see my screen now once I find somewhere I want to go I hit share and then I send it back to the thread so my friends could give their input now I can share a sticker of whatever I'm listening to directly to Instagram from my Spotify app now anyone can also share their latest GoPro footage directly to IG as well now Explorer is organized into topic channels based on your personal interests and tastes we're taking our Comment filtering technology even further by launching a bullying filter that hides language intended to harass or upset people now let's talk about whatsapp we're announcing that we're bringing group video calling to whatsapp soon
