US tech giants Facebook, Google, Twitter and Microsoft pledge to better identify terror-related videos and imagery that get posted to their online properties by sharing information. The move will involve the firms contributing to a shared database that fingerprints images and videos that have been removed from Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft and Google’s YouTube properties.

A similar project to battle child pornography is already in use with a Microsoft-based service called PhotoDNA.”]
