Social media companies team up to address self-harm content

Meta, Snap, and TikTok have launched a collaborative program called Thrive to address content related to suicide or self-harm on their platforms. The program allows the companies to share information about harmful content to coordinate removal and investigations. Thrive functions as a shared database to flag such content across platforms. The initiative is a response to growing concerns about the impact of social media on mental health, particularly among youth.
