Research has shown that far-right and racist content enjoys special protection that prevents the automatic deletion. It was found that content that discriminates against protected ethnic or religious groups is immediately erased, while content, directed against immigrants from the same groups, remained on Fejbuku.
The video shows Facebook moderators at the UK's largest Content Modernization Center. They explain that, for example, they will remove a racist post that insults Muslims. However, if the messages specifically address Muslim immigrants, they would consider it to be a political statement, and this comment would remain, writes Independent.
A Facebook page dedicated to the far right Tommy Robinson and the page "Britons in the First" enjoy special protection, usually offered to governments and information organs. This "protected" status means that problematic content will not simply be deleted, but will be passed on to employees who will review it within 24 hours.
These pages have a very large number of followers. Robinson's page has over 900,000 fans, and moderators speculate that she has been placed under protection because she has "a lot of followers, so she generates a lot of revenue for Facebook."
This company has acknowledged that these sites benefit from special protection measures. However, they add that the political content must be different from racism.
"If the content really violates the policy, it will disappear from the network, I want to clarify that this is not a money discussion, it's a discussion of political speech," says Richard Alan, vice president of Facebook for global political issues. / Justin Sullivan “/>
