Comment on Facebook staff demand Zuckerberg limit lies in politcal adsparent

Comments

Not running ads with blatant lies is not partisan.

Having a policy of allowing all lies and providing tools for sale to microtarget users so that people can’t validate truth only favors politicians pushing lies and not people viewing them.

Facebook not removing ads with blatant lies is bad enough, but their product is now positioned as a disinformation tool.

Instead of using targeting to match people who need products with those product ads, they’re openly announcing their product as a tool for corrupt politicians to target voters with disinformation.

You don’t need a cambridge analytica to steal Facebook data for targeting when Facebook is offering that same service directly
