“Hate speech against marginalized groups, including Muslims, is on the rise globally,” he said, adding that the company is improving enforcement and committed to updating its policies. The country of more than 1.3 billion has deep social and religious divisions that periodically erupt into fatal confrontations. Users in the country speak 22 major languages, making content moderation challenging, and many people have limited digital literacy.
The researchers, in a report early this year called “Adversarial Harmful Networks: India Case Study,” said that much of the content posted by users, groups and pages from the Hindu nationalist Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh group, or RSS, is never flagged. That’s because Facebook lacks sufficient technical systems for detecting material in the Hindi and Bengali languages, the researchers said.
F B must remove such posts of religious intolerance in India which is for unity in diversity.
FB leadership should be tried domestically and internationally. The only way to be leashed….
مواقع التواصل الاجتماعي جميعها سلاح ذو حدين
Lately liberal press is haunting $FB because Zuck disagreed with Biden admin on vaccine misinformation. Twitter hosting terror outfits like Taliban, ISIS, LeT, etc. is totally cool for the same liberal journalists.
Okay, forget break up FB. It should not be obvious FB needs to be destroyed. Wipe the slate clean, start over.
Really? Well who's responsible for the spreading of hate before social media? Simple answer: TV and Print Media. Now they're hating FB because they want to be back in making WAR business.
One Of The Most Shameless History For A Brand, From The Most Enterprising Frontiers. FB Should Stop The Rebranding Plans, Get ITs Reliance On The Best Of Technologies & Modes Of Treating, Serving Content, Correct.
That can be a reason to shut down FB.
'Religious hatred' in INDIA (Modi's HINDUSTAN) means anti-Muslim... but there is also anti-CHINA racial hatred which has spread far beyond India with Hindus constantly trolling Chinese + website articles in English by or about China + Chinese websites... 🤨
They don't care if the whole world suffers so long as they make the money.
RT : Facebook's services are used to spread religious hatred in India, internal documents show. Company researchers identified calls to violence that coincided with the 2020 riots in Delhi that left 53 dead. (via
Doesn't surprise me.
Yeah, keep complaining about infrastructure.

Facebook is not perfect & it does have a fair share of monopoly. However, authorities are coming up with issues, not because they care about the people, but they see the world changing with fast information. FB is fast & flexible. Mainstream media feels threatened too.
Way to go Facebook
Long story short its the black sheep’s of the society, use Facebook and other social media tools to create hatred and plot such brutal killings and religious hatred specifically towards Christians and Muslims in India. This hatred has increased a lot under current BJP party rule
They are doing more and more damages to the world. They need to be restricted more by the law and regulations.

Are you kidding? Mass violence happened even when people couldn’t read. Problem is not media, but what is Transmitted

Facebook is making the entire world more polarized. It knew it, but decided more money was worth turning the world against itself. Facebook needs to be stopped.
Facebook is at a tricky position in India. There is no algorithm behind WhatsApp to amplify viral messages. WA users spontaneously and intentionally forward viral messages. Would the massive pro-RSS WA users complain, if Facebook aggressively censors pro-RSS content on WA?
Social media does this. Social media is poisonous
So we’re newspapers and word of mouth before it. Facebook is a tool not an ideology. Stop blaming the messenger.
Realities can't be changed by putting all their own blunders on FB.
