Meta, Formerly Facebook, Gives Estimate of Bullying, Harassment on Its Platforms for First Time

Meta, formerly known as Facebook, disclosed for the first time the widespread bullying and harassment on its platform on Tuesday, saying that for every 10,000 page views on the website in the third quarter, the number of views of such content was between 14 and 15 times. The company recently changed its name to Meta and also stated in its quarterly content review report that in every 10,000 content views on Instagram, bullying and harassing content occurred between 5 and 6 times.

The social media giant has long been censoring its handling of service abuse. After a former employee and whistleblower Frances Haugen leaked internal documents, the social media giant has been receiving attention, including concerns about Instagram’s treatment of teenagers. Research and discussion on the impact of mental health and Meta’s platform have sparked disagreements. Haogen said the documents show that the company chooses profit rather than user safety. Meta disputed this description, saying the files were used to portray “false pictures.”

These documents were originally reported by The Wall Street Journal, which triggered calls for more transparency in Meta and raised questions about whether indicators such as prevalence rates have a comprehensive understanding of how the company handles abuse.

Meta stated that its bullying and harassment data only captures situations where the company does not need additional information (such as user reports) to determine whether the content violates the rules. They stated that Meta broke its bullying and harassment rules out of the 9.2 million pieces of content the company deleted, proactively discovering 59.4%.

“Bullying and harassment is a unique challenge and one of the most complex issues that need to be addressed because the environment is critical,” said Antigo Davis, the company’s global security director, and Amit Bhattacharyya, product management director, in an article Said in the blog post.

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.
