****** A must read ****** Can’t stress the importance of this article enough. Please share widely. Whistleblowers provide evidence of extraordinary censorship by Meta demanded by Israel, resulting in large scale automatic removal of posts and suspensions: ‘the largest mass censorship operation in modern history’. The effect of this will echo into the future because of the impact on AI: ‘the AI program Meta is currently training how to moderate content will base future decisions on the successful takedown of content critical of Israel’s genocide.’ ‘Government requests for takedowns generally focus on posts made by citizens inside that government’s borders.. What makes Israel’s campaign unique is its success in censoring speech in many countries outside of Israel..’ One problem with the platform’s compliance is the tsunami of Israeli TDRs uses the same complaint regardless of the specific content, pointing to not only the Counter-Terrorism Act but violation of the Privacy Act which ‘prohibits publishing images in circumstances that could humiliate the person depicted, as they contain images of the killed, injured, and kidnapped. Additionally, to our understanding, the content in the attached report violates Facebook’s community standards.’ You have to be able to torture or kill people and prevent anyone seeing what you have done, to ‘protect’ the ‘privacy’ of your victims. This takes direct aim at all the evidence posted of Israel’s atrocities. ‘Within Meta, several key leadership positions are filled by figures with personal connections to the Israeli government.’ Meta has a ‘Director of Public Policy for Israel and the Jewish Diaspora’ who ‘is a former senior Israeli government official and advisor to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’.. ‘The leaked documents reveal that Israel’s takedown requests have overwhelmingly targeted users from Arab and Muslim-majority nations.’ While most countries’ TDR target their own population, ‘Israel, however, has turned its censorship efforts outward, focusing on silencing critics and narratives that challenge its policies, particularly in the context of the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the West Bank.’ ‘Despite Meta’s awareness of Israel’s aggressive censorship tactics for at least seven years, according to Meta whistleblowers, the company has failed to curb the abuse. Instead, one said, the company “actively provided the Israeli government with a legal entry-point for carrying out its mass censorship campaign.”’ Congratulations
