I highly doubt that. These reported posts might contain private data or highly shocking content; putting that on a public platform, especially associated with the name of Facebook, is very unlikely to happen.

Is that not what the person who originally posted the content being moderated is doing?

It still would open up a gore/scare platform (think LiveLeak), since only the bad content is reported. Sure, most might be tame, but it wouldn't take long for gore seekers to come.

The person that posted the content does not expect a random person from the internet to see a video of his children because it was accidentally flagged by an AI as child porn. :)
