Paedophiles are using secret groups on Facebook to post and swap obscene images of children, the BBC has found. Settings on the social network mean the groups are invisible to most users and only members can see the content. Children's Commissioner for England Anne Longfield said Facebook was not doing enough to police the groups and protect children. Facebook's head of public policy told the BBC he was committed to removing "content that shouldn't be there". A BBC investigation found a number of secret groups, created by and run for men with a sexual interest in children, including one being administered by a convicted paedophile who was still on the sex offenders' register. The groups have names that give a clear indication of their content and contain pornographic and highly suggestive images, many purporting to be of children. They also have sexually explicit comments posted by users. We found pages specialising in pictures of girls in school uniform - accompanied by obscene posts. Images appeared to be stolen from newspapers, blogs and even clothing catalogues, while some were photographs taken secretly, and up close, in public places. One user had even posted a video of a children's dance show.

I would suspect that Facebook have already reported them and the police are letting it run so they can identify the perpetrators. Unfortunately there is often a conflict of interests between the police and the media in disclosing these things publicly.
