[AlAhram] The letter, which was first reported on by the London-based Financial Times daily, urges Facebook’s leadership to adopt measures that ensure pro-Paleostine content is not censored or removed
About 200 employees of the social media giant Facebook have signed a letter urging the company’s administration to address concerns that pro-Paleostine content on the social media platform are being censored, Paleostinian news agency (WAFA) said.
The Facebook employees urged their leadership "to order a third-party audit of enforcement actions around Arab and Moslem content, and to refer a post by Israel’s prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu describing Paleostinian civilians as murderous Moslems to its independent oversight board", the FT said.
The letter further calls on Facebook executives to set up an internal task force to "investigate and address potential biases" in both its human and automated content moderation systems, the FT reported.
"As highlighted by employees, the press and members of Congress, and as reflected in our declining app store rating, our users and community on the lam feel that we are falling short on our promise to protect open expression around the situation in Paleostine," the letter reportedly said.
"We believe Facebook can and should do more to understand our users and work on rebuilding their trust," it continued.

It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response ...
, Facebook labelled words used by Paleostinian users, such as "martyr" and "resistance", as incitements to violence. It also took down posts about the al-Aqsa Mosque after mistakenly associating the holy site with a ’terrorist’ organization, according to United States media reports.
