Did you see this, friend? Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently held a livestream where she called out Facebook for its role in spreading white supremacist propaganda and disinformation. She even retweeted our clip of the video:
Jesse Lehrich on Twitter: in her amazing livestream last night, @AOC lambasted Mark Zuckerberg for "creating recommendation engines [that've been] just funneling millions of people into white supremacist groups & organizations. He recommended it, he built the platform for it, he accelerated this." 🔥🔥🔥
Accountable Tech on Twitter: Shout-out to @AOC for calling out Facebook Group recommendations and its role in radicalizing users in last week’s attempted coup.

We’re grateful to see government leaders finally standing up and holding Big Tech accountable. For far too long, Americans (and others around the world) have been fed disinformation by the recommendation algorithms Facebook and other big social media companies employ -- and it’s time for that to end.
Even as we enter the era of a new government, dangerous disinformation continues to spread online . That’s why we’re doubling down on our work to hold Big Tech accountable and make social media companies free from disinformation and white supremacist propaganda.
