The attack spurred fears over the monitoring of livestreams and radicalization.

"It's an improvement, but needless to say, obviously it's not a perfect answer," Holt told ABC News."Moderating live content has proven to be a massive challenge to tech platforms."

"We've invested heavily in our sitewide safety operations and in the people and technologies who drive them, and will continue to do so," she said. A spokesperson for Meta, the parent company of Facebook, told ABC News that the company on Saturday quickly designated the event as a"violating terrorist attack," which prompted an internal process to identify and remove the account of the identified suspect, as well as copies of his alleged document and any copy of or link to video of his alleged attack.

"The user has been indefinitely suspended from our service, and we are taking all appropriate action, including monitoring for any accounts rebroadcasting this content," the statement added.Content monitors also face a challenge from message boards and other sites that feature white supremacist ideology and can radicalize users.

"There may be awful things on seedier internet platforms like 4chan," he said."The internet doesn't exist as perfectly siloed platforms."
