Demand a public audit of Facebook
Facebook's scandals are making vulnerable communities less safe online. Demand Facebook allow an independent civil rights and safety audit to determine what steps are needed to make Facebook a safer platform.
Why is this important?
The Facebook scandals just keep coming; every day we learn of a new way Facebook has put our communities’ safety at risk. First, we found out Facebook allowed Cambridge Analytica - a shady campaign firm working for Trump - to exploit the private personal data of 50 million people without their knowledge. Now we’ve learned that Facebook data is being used by ICE to track people.
Enough is enough. Facebook needs to take responsibility for the numerous ways they continue to put our communities at risk.
Only through a public audit of all of Facebook’s practices and programs can real systemic changes be identified that will make Facebook the type of platform where people can share photos without fear a white supremacists trolling them, talk about racism and Black experiences without fear of being put in “Facebook jail,” and keep up with our families over distance without worrying that our private information will be shared with nefarious companies.
