In your last response, you mentioned NIH has had some form of guidelines for moderating content since November 2012. Can you provide the guidance used prior to the March 30, 2015 guidelines were posted? We are still trying to locate this - the person who would know is out sick.

What level has the NIH selected for its Facebook profanity filter? NIH has the "strong" profanity filter in place. This has been in place prior to Sep 2020 and continues to be in place. 5. During the relevant time period (Sep 2020 to now), has the NIH set any Facebook Live video-specific filtering? No, but the general filters in place from Sep 2020 to now apply to Facebook Lives as well. Also, the platform attempts to prioritize most relevant comments on Facebook Lives, but off-topic comments still come through due to the volume of the comments coming through. 6. On Facebook, is it possible that "non-animal" would be hidden because it contains the filtered word "animal"?
