Web 2.0 revolution has led to the explosion of content generated every day on the internet. Social sharing platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc. have seen astonishing growth in their daily active users but have been at their split ends when it comes to monitoring the content generated by their users. Users are uploading inappropriate content such as nudity or using abusive language while commenting on posts. Such behavior leads to social issues like bullying and revenge porn and also hampers the authenticity of the platform. However, the pace at which the content is generated online today is so high that it is nearly impossible to monitor everything manually.
