Facebook and Meta's Controversial Moderation Practices

Facebook and Meta's machine-learning moderation system allowed an Israeli ad calling for the assassination of a pro-Palestinian activist to be approved despite its violation of Facebook's advertising rules. X (formerly Twitter) has 'actioned' over 325,000 pieces of content related to the Israel-Hamas war, including posts and accounts. Meta, the owner of Instagram and Facebook, has acknowledged the hiding of Palestinian flag emoji comments in certain offensive contexts.
