Facebook Can't Guarantee Social Media Is Good for Democracy
Facebook has admitted that it can't
offer any assurance that social media is on the whole good for democracy. However,
Facebook said it's doing what it can to stop people from using its service to influence voters.
Facebook is under pressure after accusations that Russia tried to
influence votes in the US, Britain and France. Samidh Chakrabarti, a Facebook product
manager, wrote that they should have done better and will make up for
lost time by disabling suspect accounts, making election ads visible beyond the
targeted audience and confirming the identities of people who run election ads.
We want our #communities to be strong and healthy. That means we all need to be cautious, act responsibly and stay informed during #COVID19. That’s why @LibertiesEU will be sharing daily updates and a weekly newsletter devoted to #HumanRightsUnderCorona.
