Alternative title: Facebook refused to remove misinformation until pressured by a government administration focused on public well-being.
This is precisely why FB should be shunned and deleted:
“We were under pressure from the administration and others to do more,” responded a Facebook vice president in charge of content policy, speaking of the Biden administration. “We shouldn’t have done it.”They don’t care how many die; they only care how much money they make while it happens.
As much as we need to tackle people spreading BS, removing content on the whims of a Govt request is something we be very concerned about, even corporate pressure to remove content is concern.
