Microsoft'un kurucu ortağı olduğu PhotoDNA teknolojisi Facebook'ta da kullanılacak. Çocuk pornosunun önüne geçebilmek ve en kısa zamanda etki edebilmek için kullanılan bu teknoloji, Facebook'a da büyük rahatlık sağlayacak. Microsoft ortaya çıkarttı, Facebook kullanmaya başlıyor: İşte o teknoloji ve amacı... 2009 yılında Dartmouth Üniversitesi ile birlikte çalışarak Microsoft PhotoDNA'yi ortaya çıkartmıştı. Daha sonra programın lisansını NCMEC'in üzerine yapan yazılım devi, çocuk pornosuna karşı açılan savaşın da büyük destekçisi olmuştu. PhotoDNA her görüntüye özel, bir parmak izine benzer imza ortaya çıkartıyor ve internetteki bilinen diğer imzalarla bu fotoğraflarınkini karşılaştırıyor. İmza, öncelikle görüntünün siyah beyaza dönüştürülmesi daha sonra da büyüklüğünün değiştirilip hücrelere bölünmesiyle ortaya çıkartılıyor. Microsoft, PhotoDNA ile beraber samanlıkta iğne aramanın kolaylaştığını belirtiyor.

A Small Portion of a MS Technet Blog Post :
Today marks a significant milestone in the ongoing fight against the abuse of Internet technology for the heinous sexual victimization of the most innocent in our society. As you may have read in the New York Times, Facebook is joining Microsoft in the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children’s PhotoDNA program to combat child pornography. NCMEC’s program, using image-matching technology created by Microsoft Research in collaboration with Dartmouth College, gives online service providers an effective tool to take more proactive action to stop the distribution of known images of child sexual abuse online.
In partnership with NCMEC, Dartmouth College, Microsoft Research, Windows Live, Bing and many others, Microsoft’s Digital Crimes Unit has long worked to advance innovations and strong partnerships to combat child exploitation. In 2009, Microsoft, working with digital imaging expert Dr. Hany Farid of Dartmouth College, developed PhotoDNA and freely licensed it to NCMEC for use in a program to disrupt the online distribution of the worst known images of child pornography known to NCMEC.
Microsoft began implementing PhotoDNA technology in Bing and SkyDrive, including images posted to SkyDrive through Hotmail, in a thoughtful and gradual process in order to assess the capabilities of the technology and we are seeing strong results. PhotoDNA identified horrific images on our services that we would have never found otherwise. To date, we have evaluated more than two billion images on our services using the PhotoDNA signatures provided by NCMEC, leading to the identification of more than 1,000 matches on SkyDrive and 1,500 matches through Bing’s image search indexing.
