Users complained of ‘not safe for work’ videos in feeds despite some having enabled setting to filter such content

It was not immediately clear how many people were affected by the glitch. Meta’s comments followed a wave of complaints on social media about violent and “not safe for work” content in Reels feeds, despite some users having enabled the “sensitive content control” setting meant to filter such material.
