and final hour of this weekend's program joining us is always for social research
doctor did you call himself dr alan rosenblatt alan welcomed the program
what do you have today
well today we're going to talk about a report that was released on
birthday this week
the uh...
uh... attribute that the title of this thing the online hate prevention
institute which is a lot of melbourne australia uh... we week have as a guest
today uh...
andrea over doctor over who's been
author of the report in his focusing on uh... anti-semitism on face book and
facebook's ability to filter out anti-semitic comments and responsibility
to uh... respond to people complaining and recognize what constitutes uh...
um... uh... anti-semite senators and and there
but lower as well
i kept my plans glaring weaknesses in experts ability both on the automated
side and on the uh... victim inside but dealing with a lot of uh...
anti-semitism or on face book uh... but for some
samantha's martin colleagues working group serious anti-semitic kinds of
issues
but there are some things that are have to do with
the for functionality of the filter system that they have and also um...
group b_ acknowledgment that certain i mean can certainly that documentation
shortly
our package fictional and it didn't reuse of propaganda um... so i i would
hope you are
we could hear a little bit about the report from dr over and uh... and and
uh... talk a little bit more about its recommendations to face book
were you there
i give up yet
welcome welcome in all thank you for joining us for you
uh... this is indeed a very uh... fascinating report and i was wandering
if you could i give us the highlights of uh... whether the push for cummings on
face book and then we can talk about the recommendation for picking up
acabo
this report starts with and number of incidents that uh... we first logged in
october last year
and we reported piece we publish them in a report we report them first please
place booked through their online tools
have been we published a report facebook's knew about these
that defense in some of them they fixed
and and to come
like january pics here other examples we still out there
so we updated the reports with new material that we hadn't previously
released
and as well as new incidents we found
and at the start of uh... if if you really think i spoke a copy of the
report again
and the real the real thing with this report
is that it documents both
the incident but also titles response it documents what textbook removed wins
and and what still out there
and what we can see is decision typed both anti famous is uncertain tonic
of online hate speech
which play spoke systematically will not remove and look at it and they just
reject the complaint
some of the the items they reject ultrasonic clearly atif mistake
uh... that this is not prices for rejecting them
uh... the
the protocols of the elders of zion on the example you mentioned earlier
uh... is there a conspiracy theory that's been around for a brother
you know hundreds of years now
uh... it starts with uh... a russian uh... forgery
uh... which is supposed to be the minutes of a secret jewish meeting about
controlling the world
uh... and does despite being exposed repeatedly
uh... these protocols were were used by the nazis invaded still circulating
particularly through the middle east
and they don't buy spoke with having multiple pages
set-top
both publishing with pics and polishing them uh... yet the like this one is said
the juice is supposed to be responsible for for nine eleven
uh... and its content is is on face book
what what is it about the content that's out there
but i think the fact is that why they won't remove it
and they haven't they haven't given it to rake reasons why they would remove
these things but we do know that we both report them and actually released copies
of their final report in advance
teeth i spoke
uh... and the content still bad
uh... we went through a a lot of discussion with site spoke a few years
ago about holocaust denial
the reason kept changing but they're the bottom line was by spoke said that they
weren't going to say to
they way could accept holocaust denial at a form of hate speech
uh...
you know again twice in the face of everything people understand around the
world if you type speech
and so i think we can
politically argument that it's
that the it's too close to political speech we don't want it denied that or
have they given any rationale
that they've given what direction notes but each time they give them to beat the
odds were different
uh... the like this one is that uh... they think that holocaust in ohio is the
dispute over a factual matter
and uh... as
such behavior
they dug remove holocaust adult birthright
but uh... if they
see in the anti semitism in a pipe that much holocaust stop will be very quick
to remove it
uh... but one of the things we fit in this report is that in practice
a lot of the holocaust loyalty of coming down pretty quickly uh... but they've
sort of needs to be a an excuse to remove that the fact that it's holocaust
smile he did all that felt is is not enough
court where the conversation underneath
the the postings about holocaust denial that starts to include the anti-semitic
slurs as women a connection
that's about the five th that he had that that look at the
static content
uh... we had an example what with the slightest lots
uh... the holocaust denial related there was a page should be a great swiss
literally hates jews
uh... but it was missing teeth so it'd have to choose
and um... there were a number of of problematic things on the sprites we
poked by spoke about it
and uh... this was one of the one st they rejected the complaints on the
fifth night that's fine
uh...
a little wildlife uh... short yep you guys off to bed looked at it
banff ab reveals a picture of mark took a bit on there and that somebody pointed
to shift his head be chopped off
now that high-tech unseen suddenly vanished
