Meta is in more hot water.

Meta allegedly gave accounts engaged in the “trafficking of humans for sex” 16 chances before suspending them, according to testimony from the company’s former head of safety and well-being, Vaishnavi Jayakumar. The testimony — along with several other claims that Meta ignored problems if they increased engagement — surfaced in an unredacted court filing related to a social media child safety lawsuit filed by school districts across the country.

    No shit. You can pay me and I know how to get suspended accounts brought back. I did it with my 20 year old suspended account. Lost it for a year and figured out how to get it reviewed. Very happy to have everything back.

    Wow it seems like corporations condone child abuse.

    It really seems like we need some “proportionality laws” such as “a service provider cannot treat illegal activity with more lenience than civil disputes” and retain neutrality protections.

        … to google. (Not sure if it’s generalizable to 95% of for-profit corporations by the legal definition of for-profit. But we know for sure about google.)

      To be fair, they allowed 17 strikes without repercussions. We may never actually know how many strikes it would take to get suspended on the platform

      I suggest a 1 strike policy.
      Here’s an example: use 1 supersonic heatseeking rocket to do a rocket strike on Zuckerberg (if he survives then use 1 more rocket until he is no longer breathing)

      If successful then it could be a policy that’s adopted to be used on other billionaires, muskyboy, tRUMP, etc etc.

      It may not work but I say we should give it a go for about ten years to see what happens…

        use 1 supersonic heatseeking rocket

        Personally I’d go for the slap chop, aka R-9X, but I understand if you fancy heatseekers

    I’m not defending the policy but the title doesn’t match the story:

    “That means that you could incur 16 violations for prostitution and sexual solicitation, and upon the 17th violation, your account would be suspended,”

    “Promise me you won’t be sending 15 year olds to your island next time, Epstein, or you will be banned if you do it again for the 16th time.”

    Although, seriously, this explains a lot why Trump admin and the oligarchs are sexual deviants.

    hey look who hasn’t been busted doing the same wrong thing on the 15th time and thought, “man y’know what it’s time to turn myself around…”

    I tried reporting a blatant kidnapping/pig butchering gang, and there literally wasn’t a category for it in their reporting mechanism. I picked the closest thing I could think of, and naturally the report just got ignored.

    Meanwhile, one harmless meme and you’re suspended. I don’t get why people use Meta anymore. The site went to shit 20 years ago, and nobody seems to want to jump to another platform. For reasons unknown - there was no issue leaving MySpace for Facebook, so just fucking do it again.

      Idk the only time I’ve seen Facebook dot com links is when my parents send me AI videos of animals. I’m trying to get them off of it but they are set in their ways, etc etc
