This evening Facebook sent out a press release announcing the formation of the "Facebook Safety Advisory Board, a group of five leading Internet safety organizations from North America and Europe that will serve in a consultative capacity to the company on issues related to online safety." The goal is to proactively work together with existing online safety organizations to protect users. For those familiar with the traditionally reactive position that most social networks take, this is an unprecedented action by Facebook. Facebook continues to invest in improved privacy settings for users, as well as working with organizations to ensure a safe environment on the world's largest social platform.
