The report focuses heavily on Joel Kaplan, Facebook’s vice president of global public policy. According to the Post, Kaplan, a Republican, helped block attempts to strengthen the platform’s algorithm in ways that would lead to the removal of more hate speech from the site. Specifically, it said Kaplan and other senior executives watered down a proposal from company researchers to fix the algorithm so it would automatically remove hate speech that surveyed users deemed the “worst of the worst.
According to documents the Post received, company researchers “discovered that 55 percent of the content users reported to Facebook as most harmful was directed at just four minority groups: Blacks, Muslims, the LGBTQ community and Jews.” A Facebook spokesperson told the Post that Kaplan objected to the proposal because of the types of hate speech it would no longer automatically delete.
