Tech companies including Facebook, Google and Microsoft have pledged to improve and standardize annual disclosures around online child exploitation, as they fight off moves to limit encryption.

“We’d love to move beyond just the number of reports that may be out there, to really understanding what those reports mean,” said Antigone Davis, Facebook’s global head of safety.

Child welfare advocates say the number of known child sexual abuse images has soared from thousands to tens of millions in recent years, as predators have increasingly used social networks to groom victims and exchange explicit images. Facebook generated more than 90% of U.S. child sexual abuse reports online last year, according to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.
