Facebook Feature on Suicide

[ynan]

Can Facebook add suicidal note detection? In this case Facebook can help notifying his/her friends about the plan or the risk... Just my suggestion though... Thanks.

The notification of the posted post to friends will suffice to this. Hence, IMO, no need to add this feature.

But Facebook may put some alarming sounds or notifications...

Lisura ana i add nga feature. That would mean facebook will have an AI that would work on the background and will read all the post on the walls.

Di na siguro na needs anyway most suicides would give hints to their friends and love ones regarding their plans. Mo reach out man jud na sila before they will do that. Kung sensitive lang ta ang mfa friends and relatives ma pugngan unta most suicides kay most of them will change their minds if they will feel that a lot of people still cares for them.

I am not sure if that gives importance for Facebook to set-up that kind of notification because friends could simply read and understand the post. If this will be added, someone could send a prank. Or use it to scam people. So instead of good purpose it will be used to non-sense and users will be at risk.

That's a RED FLAG there. You want invasion of privacy? Where FB's bots go around their data centers crawling over user profiles and flagging certain profiles with certain patterns that match that of a suicide note?

You might as well give NSA access to FB profiles LOL.
