Facebook whistleblower says tech giant makes hate worse

Published

on

Well-known Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen has made another address about her former company’s practices, this time at the Online Safety Bill committee in London

Haugen told British MPs that the social media giant is “unquestionably making hate worse”… as the hearing continues regarding what new rules should be imposed on social media giants.

The whistleblower believes Facebook’s safety teams are lacking the required resources to do their job properly and is unwilling to sacrifice profits for protecting users.

Meanwhile, Haugen also told the committee that Instagram is the worst platform out of them all, saying the platform “is about social comparison and about bodies… about people’s lifestyles, and that’s what ends up being worse for kids”.

It comes as British lawmakers look to impose new duties and regulations on large social media organisations and ensure they are subject to appropriate checks and balances.

When speaking about leadership within the company, Haugen says there is a lack of personal accountability and understanding around public safety.
