RepScan, based in Barcelona, allows anyone to locate, document, and request the removal of harmful content affecting their image or rights<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

RepScan, the alternative to disinformation and harmful content online<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Meta recently announced the closure of its content moderation center in Barcelona, resulting in the dismissal of over 2,100 fact-checkers. Beyond the loss of thousands of jobs, this decision raises a critical question that concerns all Meta users: who will now control the flood of information, fake news, stolen images, and harmful content circulating every second on Facebook and Instagram?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this new landscape, companies like RepScan emerge as a real, accessible, and effective alternative. RepScan is a Barcelona-based startup with a clear mission: to democratize the right to delete content from the Internet. Using its technology, it enables anyone to locate, document, and request the removal of harmful content that affects their image or violates their rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the words of co-founder and President Josep Coll: \u201cUntil now, people didn\u2019t have control over what was said or shown about them online. With RepScan, we want to change that.\u201d In a world where more and more processes\u2014from getting a job to renting an apartment or applying for a loan\u2014are influenced by online reputation, having effective tools to manage the information shared about us is essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Coll, \u201cMeta\u2019s withdrawal from this front represents a concerning lack of protection for millions of people who see their rights violated online every day. Whether it\u2019s the spread of false information, unauthorized sharing of images, identity theft, or even criminal content, the gap Meta leaves must be urgently filled.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Real cases, real consequences<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The consequences of this digital vulnerability are devastating. Content published without consent can have irreversible effects: from a humiliating photo going viral and preventing someone from finding a job, to a harassment victim whose personal images are shared on social media without knowing how to respond. And now, with 2,100 fewer professionals in Meta\u2019s moderation ecosystem, the problem is likely to worsen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RepScan not only detects and documents harmful content, but also takes swift action to stop its spread. Its urgent service operates 24\/7 and charges only if the content is successfully removed\u2014offering assurance and peace of mind to people in critical situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RepScan operates under a SaaS model, with an intuitive platform where anyone can activate alerts, report content, and track the removal process in real time. This model enables rapid response to new harmful content, offering a digital shield that was previously only available to those who could afford specialized lawyers or lengthy legal proceedings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the vacuum left by Meta, it\u2019s essential to have solutions like RepScan, which not only provide an effective response but also empower individuals to regain control of their digital identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Content moderation: A responsibility that cannot disappear<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe closure of the moderation center in Barcelona cannot be seen as a mere corporate restructuring. We are witnessing a step backward in safeguarding fundamental rights such as privacy, honor, and personal image. Major platforms cannot shirk their responsibility for the content they distribute. And if they do, external solutions must step in to fill that gap,\u201d says Josep Coll of RepScan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RepScan is precisely that: a real and urgent response to a situation that is leaving millions of people defenseless against digital abuse. Its technology, agile model, and focus on protecting individual rights make it an essential tool in the new digital ecosystem that lies ahead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
