It's still censorship, chair-moistener:
“Now we get a chance to rethink and do this right,” Angus told reporters Monday. “The massive use of algorithms and AI, and their deliberate misuse by Facebook, must be addressed.”
Angus pointed to revelations from Haugen, a former data analyst with Facebook who went public with internal research and said the company was prioritizing profit over users, even as it was aware its algorithms were pushing harmful content to users.
Haugen’s testimony revealed “Facebook knew that its algorithms are driving hate content and leading to breakdown in civic engagement,” and that its Instagram platform was having a serious negative effect on teens, Angus said.
A company like Facebook, which has been happy to restrict content, makes its money from its indiscreet users.
Perhaps its time for parents to do their g-d- jobs and take the cell phones away, no?
This is backdoor censorship and Charlie Angus knows it.
Let this sink in:
The CRTC has rejected a license for a local German-language radio station in a Prairie town after claiming it would prevent residents from fully participating in Canadian society. The ruling was issued on Multiculturalism Day: “I do not understand why they would do this.”
Just remember that Quebec is special.
I can only imagine what Dief would have said:
The Privy Council Office yesterday expressed regret after Access To Information censors concealed as a state secret a 1959 speech by then-Prime Minister John Diefenbaker. His Commons speech has been on the public record for 62 years but was stored in a file marked “TOP SECRET.”
