Facebook Vows to Develop Its Existing System, Refuses to Install Pedophile 'Panic Button'

Facebook has vowed to develop its existing system but has refused to install the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (Ceop) center 'panic button' on its page to report suspected pedophiles.

The social networking site has been pressured to start the 'panic button' on its pages, after Peter Chapman was convicted for the murder of 17-year-old Ashleigh Hall, whom he lured using Facebook, reports The BBC.

Scientists Developing Spy Software to Track Online Pedophiles

Nonetheless, the site has agreed to have links to organizations including the Child Exploitation and Online Protection (Ceop) centre on its reporting pages.

Jim Gamble, head of Ceop, wants the button to be on the front page of every profile page, "so that children are reassured and empowered, so are their parents, and offenders are deterred. That's the key."
