We've activated Safety Check again after the bombing in Nigeria - Facebook founder, Mark Zuckerberg

Founder of Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg took to his Facebook wall to announce that they have activated the safety check on their site following the bomb blast in Yola, Adamawa state yesterday.

Facebook came under fire for a perceived Western bias when it activated Safety Check after the Paris attacks, with critics noting that terrorist attacks in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia hadn't previously warranted its deployment.

  4. Instead of us to develop our own, we are behind our keyboards dictating to the white man on how to use his own invention to help our sorry asses.

    I noticed some of my friends in the north had safety checks assigned to their profile. So this is what it was all about.

  9. He's right about violence being at an all time low. When I watch history movies and read about the wars then, I actually appreciate being born in this era. Probably the late 1900s after the world war just before the year 2000 were the most peaceful.

  23. Nigeria is not France and should not get the same treatment. A terror attack in France is seen as a tragedy. In a country with oil it's seen as an opportunity to invade.

  31. That's nice to know even though we know majority of those in that area are not connected on social media. In Paris, the response to it was rapid due to the level of usage of social media there.
