Meta's Policy Shift on Hateful Conduct Alters Speech Regulations on its Platforms

Credited from: THEGUARDIAN

  • Meta has revised its content policies regarding "hateful conduct" across its platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, and Threads.
  • The changes permit users to make allegations of mental illness regarding gender or sexual orientation, reflecting political discourse.
  • A specific prohibition on referring to transgender or non-binary individuals as “it” has been removed, potentially opening the door to discriminatory language.
  • Users are now allowed to express views that may attack gender and immigration topics in a derogatory manner.
  • Warnings against self-admission of hate speech have been eliminated, raising concerns about the implications for community safety.
