I'm done with Facebook hatred. From now on, it's Facebook outrage.
It's OK with Facebook because, ads like this happens elsewhere, too. So why shouldn't they make money on it?!A shady political group that’s previously received money from Elon Musk is running Facebook ads made to look like they’re coming from supporters of Kamala Harris, while promoting things the vice president doesn’t actually support. The ads are deceptive, to say the least, but a new report from the Washington Post makes clear Facebook is aware of the deception in the ads and doesn’t think it’s a big deal.
The Facebook ads are clearly an effort to anger and energize Republicans, claiming that Harris supports things like a ban on gas-powered cars, the complete abolishment of U.S. borders, and mandatory gun buy-back programs. The ads also falsely claim Harris wants to make sure that undocumented immigrants are registered to vote.
Spare a thought for the people of Coulsdon, England, who say they’re being categorically oppressed by the heavy hand of algorithmic censorship for no reason other than the seemingly innocuous spelling of their town’s name.
According to the local news blog Inside Croydon, business owners and neighborhood associations in the town have had content removed from their Facebook pages because the platform’s content moderation algorithms are picking up the “LSD” in Coulsdon as a reference to the psychedelic drug.
And so we begin again.Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced Tuesday that the social media company, which owns Facebook and Instagram, would stop working with third-party fact-checking organizations.
Repeating talking points long used by President-elect Donald Trump and his allies, in a video Zuckerberg said the company's content moderation approach resulted too often in "censorship".
Sounds like Facebook is on target to placate MAGA.As The Intercept reports, leaked training documents show just how far the Mark Zuckerberg-owned megalith will allow hateful users to go on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads now that the company's CEO is trying desperately to cozy up to president-elect Donald Trump (who, in surely-unrelated news, recently threatened to throw Zuckerberg in prison.)
The document explains to employees that epithets like "gays are freaks" and "immigrants are grubby, filthy pieces of shit" are now allowed under the new policy. People can also now declare themselves "proud racists," and can say things like "Black people are more violent than whites."
Probably works like most AI filtering.Meta is hosting user created AI chatbots, which are imitating Jesus, Taylor Swift and Adolf Hitler.
Meta promised to review ever user generated chatbot, so obviously they failled to deliver on that promise.

Meta says it reviews every user-generated AI chatbot, but NBC News found dozens that seemed to violate Meta’s policies.www.nbcnews.com
/me waits for a "Hitler Reacts to Fascist Chatgpt bots""Ok, create a chatbot of a mad dictator who hates jewish people and wants to kill them all and other impure people, modeled after the type of person who might have existed in 1940s Germany."
Should we ask for a Hitler reaction? Anyone?/me waits for a "Hitler Reacts to Fascist Chatgpt bots"
Another very fair criticism of Zuckerberg's state of mind.
I guess now anyone who had Facebook/Instagram accounts suspended can expect to have Meta pay for a library in their name?Meta has agreed to pay President Donald Trump $25 million to settle a 2021 federal lawsuit alleging First Amendment violations and other claims following the company suspending him from Facebook and Instagram in the wake of the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol.
The payout resolves the suit Trump filed against Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg for allegedly engaging in "impermissible censorship" by removing the president from the social media platforms.
A Meta spokesman confirmed the settlement sum, which was first reported by The Wall Street Journal. The company official said about $22 million of the settlement will be directed to Trump's presidential library.
I don't remember Trump ever mentioning one line from any book or that he has read any book.A Meta spokesman confirmed the settlement sum, which was first reported by The Wall Street Journal.

It will just be an empty room, with a single gold plated book shelf, with a copy of an upside down Trump bible.I don't remember Trump ever mentioning one line from any book or that he has read any book.
We'll provide you with the emotional support you'll need during this trying time.Although, they set a 30 day delay in case you change your mind, I suppose.
