exit.al - A Facebook whistleblower has denounced Facebook’s failure to take action on networks of fake accounts, including one supporting a political leader in Albania.Former data scientist for the social media giant, Sophie Zhang has accused the company of ignoring or failing to act on issues that have undermined elections and political affairs around the world.
In a 6600-word memo, partially published by Buzzfeed, Zhang said:
“I’ve found multiple, blatant attempts by foreign national governments to abuse the platform on vast scales to mislead their own citizenry, and caused international news on multiple occasions. I have personally made decisions that affected national presidents, without oversight, and taken action to enforce against so many prominent politicians globally, that I’ve lost count.”She added that there were countless examples of heads of government and political parties using fake accounts to sway public opinion. Zhang said she also found evidence of coordinated campaigns to influence outcomes.
