Facebook graphic video u-turn
David Cameron has said he is "pleased" Facebook has changed its approach to hosting graphic videos after the site removed a video that showed a woman being beheaded.
PM: Facebook 'irresponsible' to allow violent videos
David Cameron has condemned Facebook's decision to lift a ban on videos showing beheadings and other violence.
Gory photos and videos are now permitted on the site so long as the content is posted in a manner intended for its users to "condemn" the acts rather than celebrate them.
"Sharing any graphic content for sadistic pleasure is prohibited," Facebook insisted.
