Today we are releasing one of our study on @Meta's amplification of hate preachers on Facebook. Our report has found Meta platforms to be a space for far-right organisations and hateful political actors to organize, gain momentum, and orchestrate lynch mobs (1/5)
According to our study @Meta consistently failed to respect its user's dignity by allowing spaces where pictures and addresses of inter-faith couples were widely circulated leading to their doxing. (2/5)
This report and its findings were directly shared with @Meta by us and @SumOfUs. Meta's official failed to provide a clear and reliable answer or hold public discussions despite pointing that we have also communicated this research earlier to Foley Hoag for #HRIA. (3/5)
As expected @Meta tried to hide its HR impact in India behind a global report and in a 4-page summary. While Meta calls these impacts to be 'Salient' and committed by a 'third-party'. (4/5)
We want to categorically say that these are the adverse human rights impacts of Meta's product and relationships in India (may we also refer to UNGP - BHR over here). (5/5)

🚨New report🚨

Days before India’s elections end, we are sounding the alarm bells on how the #BJP and allied organizations have persistently, in violation of Indian electoral law, used disinformation narratives against Indian Muslims.

A speech by PM #Modi warning about “Vote Jihad” made international headlines and drew condemnation: In it, Modi spread a dangerous narrative that Muslims have launched a jihad against India during elections - and that their democratic participation must be stopped❌ Image
This is a clear violation of India’s election laws – which prohibit appealing to communal feelings, using religious references, and promoting enmity or hatred. ⚖️Here’s what the law says: Image

@accessnow's #KeepItOn report shows that India under PM Modi has made its mark in the world, quite literally as the country is consistently a top performer in the internet shutdown race. 2/11

@G7 @BorisJohnson @JustinTrudeau
@freedomhouse’s Freedom in the World 2020 report ranked India as the ‘Countries in the Spotlight’ for the “deterioration of basic freedoms”. India moved down 10 points from 2017 and has been given the status of a ‘partly free’ country. 3/11
