Embroiled in a massive data breach and facing $1.63 billion in fine from the European Union (EU) privacy watchdog, Facebook on Tuesday introduced a new feature for its 2.3 billion users to hide or delete multiple comments at once from the options menu of their post. This feature is rolling out on desktop and Android and will be available on iOS in the coming months.

"We are also testing ways to more easily search for and block offensive words from appearing in comments," said Antigone Davis, Global Head of Safety at Facebook. "If you see a friend or family member being bullied or harassed, now you can report someone on their behalf via the menu above the post that you are concerned about." Facebook community operations team will review the post, keep the report anonymous, and determine whether it violates its community standards.
