BOSTON – Facebook said Tuesday that it expects to name the first members of a new quasi-independent oversight board by year-end.
“Facebook should not make so many important decisions about free expression and safety on our own,” he wrote at the time. The multinational board will eventually comprise 40 members, who will collectively decide a few dozen cases a year, company executives told reporters in a conference call. It will at first hear only cases initiated by Facebook but will begin hearing appeals initiated by users in the first half of 2020, the company said. It will get to work as soon as 11 members are named.
“How to deal with authoritarian regimes is a deep issue for the platform, and for the world really,” said Harvard law student Evelyn Douek, an Australian expert on content moderation.
