San Francisco, July 14 (TIWN) Despite Facebook's efforts to make the platform free of terrorist propaganda, pro-Islamic State (ISIS) accounts have found ways to survive on the platform, says a new report from non-profit Institute for Strategic Dialogue (ISD) released on Monday.

During the three months of analysis, ISD researchers found that the Fuouaris Upload network expanded to other platforms, namely SoundCloud, where it currently controls 18 branded accounts that have seeded 91 pieces of ISIS audio content.  "While 70 percent of the Fuouaris Upload accounts were taken down during the monitoring period, these decentralised networks demonstrated considerable resilience," said the report.  While 62 of the core accounts were removed, 28 identical accounts remained, highlighting the uneven nature of moderation, it added.
