It's truly disgusting how thoroughly @Facebook has washed their hands of this horrible situation.
If @Facebok had ever been serious about connecting the world or righting the multitude of wrongs they still enable, they would have started with the Rohingya Muslims.

Background here, from September 2018 bbc.com/news/blogs-tre…
And here (two Reuters journalists were imprisoned for more than a year researching atrocities against the Rohingya):

reuters.com/investigates/s…
And this, commissioned by Facebook itself, and truly damning.

Here's @Facebook's statement on the issue from this time last year. It certainly has aged well.

How can you stand by and allow this to happen and still pretend to support free speech and a free press, @Facebook? reuters.com/article/us-mya…

Finally this question has started appearing in the public conversation. Finally. I'm very glad.

In 2007, "reverse 911" calls were used throughout San Diego County during massive fires and were credited with saving many lives. Anglo lives only though; they didn't offer those same services in Spanish. Non-English speakers didn't even know they were an option in many cases
"One domestic worker in Santa Rosa who asked that she not be identified for fear of losing her job said that she was actually instructed to remain and safeguard a home in an evacuation zone as her employer fled. She was trapped by the roadblocks and mudslides for about a week.

I'm not gonna share that Richard Spencer audio but everyone who ever normalized him and polished him up in the mainstream as a "new" and "dapper" form of white supremacy should be deeply ashamed of their role platforming him. Also lol at Milo trying his damnedest to be relevant
Pro tip: If someone is using their platform to spread an ideology that is explicitly intended to silence an entire group of people (or groups of people), it ceases to be free speech and any whining they might do about their own rights to such have already been abrogated.
Spencer and all his heavy-breathing followers would love nothing more than to see someone like me (for example) shut down for life. It's why they send me so many threats. FUCK THEM ALL.

In Kenya, disinformation (spread via Facebook) so thoroughly tainted an election that they needed to have a do-over. That's not in this link but it's worth keeping in mind while reading this report. I'll link to it below.

🚨Facebook dichiara di essere un editore🚨

#Facebook ha ammesso in un documento federale di essere, in effetti, un editore, non una piattaforma!

#20settembre #censura #Italia #CasaPound #libertàdiparola #Renzi #GovernoConte2 #scissionepd #Bibbiano #governogiallorosso #Salvini
Ciò significa che"la decisione di #Facebook di disattivare un account non può essere attaccata perché,secondo la legge,né FB né nessun altro editore possono essere responsabili per la mancata pubblicazione del messaggio di qualcun altro"

#20settembre #FreeSpeech #Italia #Salvini
🤔
"Definirsi come editore apre #Facebook a cause legali per diffamazione e altre responsabilità per i contenuti pubblicati dagli utenti, qualcosa contro cui erano stati precedentemente immunizzati."

🔴Facebook ha avuto un problema di sicurezza che ha esposto 50 mln di utenti. Altri 40 a rischio. Per questo 90 mln di utenti devono fare di nuovo il login. Storia in divenire qui comunicato Facebook newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/09/s…
Facebook dice di non sapere origine o identità degli attaccanti e di dover valutare ancora la portata, riferisce il NYT. Ad essere stati sottratti i token di accesso attraverso una vulnerabilità (che sarebbe stata chiusa) nytimes.com/2018/09/28/tec…
No accesso a password, no accesso ai messaggi privati o alle carte di credito degli utenti, ha detto Facebook in conferenza stampa, aggiungendo di stare lavorando con l’Fbi. Comunque bruttissima storia. Info via Reuters

#Facebook thread:
Ahead of Zuckerberg's Congress testimony, a quick revision guide.
All you need to know about Facebook (and why you should be concerned), brought to you by the Observer/Guardian's investigation into data and democracy...
Hard to believe it was less than a month ago that @carolecadwalla broke the story about GSR harvesting 50m+ Facebook profiles for @CamAnalytica to use in political campaigning:
Revealed: 50 million Facebook profiles harvested for Cambridge Analytica.. theguardian.com/news/2018/mar/…
Via the first major interview with @CamAnalytica whistleblower @chrisinsilico which explained Facebook had known about the leak for at least 18months and detailed Robert Mercer / Steve Bannon's central roles ‘I made Bannon’s psychological warfare tool’: theguardian.com/news/2018/mar/…

Facebook has some really creepy plans!
Just check their patents!
Small thread with thanks to @jashkenas 👇

1⃣ Facebook wants to track your eye movements
using special infrared LEDs that shine into your pupil & cornea to determine gaze patents.google.com/patent/US20180… #Facebook #privacy
Facebook wants to reads your comments for positive or negative “affinity scores”
to generate sentiments and “trust scores”
and use the resulting data sets from trusted users
to train a machine learning model
patents.google.com/patent/US20180… | #privacy #facebook
to manipulate people..
3⃣ Facebook wants to “automatically sense, record and identify all types of activities such as walking, running, jogging, cycling, rowing, driving with car, bus, train, walking stairs, jumping, swimming, playing football & skiing” patents.google.com/patent/US20150… | #Facebook #privacy
