Facebook and Burma--

https://www.theverge.com/2021/8/11/22619845/facebook-oversight-board-myanmar-china-hate-speech-ruling-decision

 

Was ”caught” by sample algorithm

Oversight board said it needed “to be read by someone who understands Burmese”

Term was “f-ing Chinese” but Oversight Bd said it was against Ch Govt, not people.

No user flagged the post as racist.

Oversight Bd ordered FB to restore the post.
