Facebook removed seven million posts in second quarter for false coronavirus information
(Reuters) - Facebook Inc (FB.O) said on Tuesday it removed 7 million posts in the second quarter for sharing false information about the novel coronavirus, including content that promoted fake preventative measures and exaggerated cures.
It released the data as part of its sixth Community Standards Enforcement Report, which it introduced in 2018 along with more stringent decorum rules in response to a backlash over its lax approach to policing content on its platforms.
The world’s biggest social network said it would invite proposals from experts this week to audit the metrics used in the report, beginning in 2021. It committed to the audit during a July ad boycott over hate speech practices.
The company removed about 22.5 million posts with hate speech on its flagship app in the second quarter, a dramatic increase from 9.6 million in the first quarter. It attributed the jump to improvements in detection technology.
It also deleted 8.7 million posts connected to “terrorist” organizations, compared with 6.3 million in the prior period. It took down less material from “organized hate” groups: 4 million pieces of content, compared to 4.7 million in the first quarter.
The company does not disclose changes in the prevalence of hateful content on its platforms, which civil rights groups say makes reports on its removal less meaningful.
Facebook said it relied more heavily on automation for reviewing content starting in April as it had fewer reviewers at its offices due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
That resulted in less action against content related to self-harm and child sexual exploitation, executives said on a conference call.

Thailand shop installs system to keep doors shut to customers not wearing masks
Twitter user Niall Harbison shared a video of the shop which has a door fitted with a machine that scans the face of the customer for a mask and also records the body temperature. The doors open only if the machine detects a mask and the customer doesn’t have a fever.

India asks Twitter to take down some tweets critical of its COVID-19 handling
The Indian government asked social media platform Twitter (TWTR.N) to take down dozens of tweets, including some by local lawmakers, that were critical of India’s handling of the coronavirus outbreak, as cases of COVID-19 again hit a world record.
Twitter has withheld some of the tweets after the legal request by the Indian government, a company spokeswoman told Reuters on Saturday.
The government made an emergency order to censor the tweets, Twitter disclosed on Lumen database, a Harvard University project.
In the government's legal request, dated April 23 and disclosed on Lumen, 21 tweets were mentioned. Among them were tweets from a lawmaker named Revnath Reddy, a minister in the state of West Bengal named Moloy Ghatak and a filmmaker named Avinash Das.

Facebook hides posts calling for PM Modi’s resignation in India
Facebook has hidden all posts with the hashtag “Resign Modi” in India a few days after the US Social Jaguar Note responded to orders from New Delhi with Twitter. Censored some posts critical of the Indian government’s treatment of the coronavirus pandemic..
Facebook says it hides posts with the “Resign Modi” hashtag on its website. This is because some posts violate community standards. (Searching for “Resign Modi” will return some results to US users.) At this time, it’s unclear whether Facebook was ordered to receive this call or did it voluntarily.
The tweet of “#ResignModi” at the time of publication was seen in India. With more than 450 million WhatsApp users and nearly 400 million Facebook users, India is the largest market for social enterprises on a user-based scale.
Recently, in South Asian countries, many citizens have begun to complain to the government on social channels as they struggle to find empty beds, oxygen supplies and medicines in hospitals.
