"To ensure Meta's content policies are framed neutrally and in line with international human rights standards, Meta should remove the term 'transgenderism' from the Hateful Conduct policy and corresponding implementation guidance."
"Meta announced that it was still 'assessing feasibility' regarding the proposed rephrasing 'to provide clarity ... about what we do and do not allow, even if it includes potentially offensive terminology.'"
"Meta may believe it can continue to flout the basic best practices of social media platform trust and safety. Its customers, creators, and advertisers should be aware that it is engaging in this behavior."
Meta's hate speech policy allows for discourse on transgenderism and homosexuality but includes the term 'transgenderism,' which advisors recommended removing. The Oversight Board's recommendations are non-binding, and Meta has not acted on them for over a year. In a recent report, Meta stated it is still assessing the feasibility of rephrasing its policies. Critics argue that Meta is neglecting best practices in social media trust and safety, impacting its users and advertisers.
