Two killed and 12 rescued after Mumbai building that had got notice to vacate collapses

Its been a tragic morning for Mumbai as a 3-storey building has been collapsed in Mumbai's Bhiwandi. The 3-storey residential building in Bhiwandi which is on the outskirts of the Mumbai collapsed killing atleast 8 people.

Mumbai: 3-storey building collapses in Bhiwandi on Monday; 10 dead, 20-25 trapped in debris

Facebook's rather questionable proposal to combat revenge porn which was first introduced in Australia in November will now move to the US, Canada, and the UK, reports said.&nbsp;

The request: asking users to send their intimate pictures to Facebook in order for it to register and block them from ever being posted by other users.&nbsp;

The program is called the Non-Consensual Intimate Image Pilot, and as described by Facebook, which is an “emergency option” for people who are worried their images might be shared in the future.

The idea received a lot of flak in Australia. No further information was revealed on how the trial went in the country.&nbsp;

In the UK, if you suspect that an image of you could be leaked on the social media website, Facebook says you should contact its partners for the trial - Revenge Porn Helpline.&nbsp;

The staff there will then get in touch with Facebook and you'll get sent a link to upload the photo. The idea is that Facebook can then digitally fingerprint the submitted image and block its potential future spread.

So, who will the photos be sent to on Facebook? Facebook's Global Head of Safety Antigone Davis told local media that the photos will only be viewed by a small group comprising of five specially trained reviewers who will give the photo a unique digital fingerprint which will be stored on the database.&nbsp;

If anyone in future tries to upload an intimate picture of a person, the system will recognise the code and block it from appearing on Facebook, messenger, and Instagram.&nbsp;

However, it's unclear if this idea would be a hit. The problem is not the technology but&nbsp;what's bizarre is Facebook's fuzzy proposal and the fact that anyone submitting their photo to Facebook would still be vulnerable to potentially having that image be exploited.

One in eight American social media users has been a target of non-consensual pornography, according to a 2017 study conducted by the Cyber Civil Rights Initiative.

Mumbai building collapse: Death toll climbs to 13, rescue operations continue

The death toll in the building collapse in Mumbai's Dongri area climbed to 14 on Wednesday even as the search and rescue operation was still on.

The search and rescue operation is being carried out by Mumbai Fire Brigade and National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), with the help of sniffer dogs. The injured have been admitted to the city's J J Hospital and Habib Hospital.

The incident occurred at 11 am on Tuesday in Dongri area, initially killing two persons and trapping over 40 people under its debris.

Meanwhile, Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis has announced a compensation of Rs 5 lakh each to the kin of those who died in the building collapse.

He also announced a compensation of Rs 50,000 for the injured. The state government has ordered an investigation into the incident.&nbsp; 
 
Fadnavis has called a meeting to discuss the building collapse. Housing Minister RV Patil and officers from Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation, Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority are expected to attend the meeting, reported news agency ANI.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has expressed grief over the death of people in the building collapse.

''Collapse of a building in Mumbai’s Dongri is anguishing. My condolences to the families of those who lost their lives. I hope the injured recover soon. Maharashtra Government, NDRF and local authorities are working on rescue operations &amp; assisting those in need,'' PM Modi said.
