Meta/Facebook forskjellsbehandler i Israel/Palestina-konflikten

I september 2021 bestilte Meta/Facebook an uavhengig vurdering av sin rolle i Israel/Palestina-konflikten. Bakgrunnen var påstander om forskjellsehandling.

Rapport fra BSR ( Business for Social Responsibility) forelå 22. september 2022:

Rights Due Diligence of Meta’s Impacts in Israel and Palestine in May 2021
In September 2021, Meta commissioned BSR to review the human rights impacts of the company’s policies and activities during the May 2021 crisis in Israel and Palestine. 

Times of Israel  oppsummerer slik 22. september 2022:
"Probe finds over-enforcement of policies on Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp adversely impacted freedom of expression and other rights during conflict, especially for Palestinians"

Human Rights Watch oppsummerer 27. september 2022:
"For years, digital and human rights organizations have been calling for an independent review of Meta’s content moderation policies. These calls came as a result of Meta’s constant and deliberate actions to censor the voices and narrative of Palestinians and those in solidarity with them. Thus, denying Palestinians their right to freedom of expression, affecting their freedom of assembly and freedom to political participation and non-discrimination and further distorting the international community’s understanding of what is happening in Palestine. We appreciate and value BSR’s efforts and professionalism through their assessment and independent review."

Da er det klarlagt skjevbehandling av Facebook til ugunst for palestinerne.
Og Facebook har fått en rekke forslag til forbedringer.
Vil det bli bedre?
