Anti-hate groups are pressing Meta shareholders to demand transparency on hate speech

  • Activists are urging Meta shareholders to demand transparency on hate speech handling.
  • The Anti-Defamation League and JLens are behind a proposal requiring Meta to report on moderation of hate speech.
  • The proposal focuses on transparency regarding antisemitism, anti-LGBTQ+, and anti-disability hate speech.
  • Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg's majority control makes approval of the proposal unlikely.
  • Shareholders will vote on the proposal, known as Proposal 8, at Meta's annual meeting on May 28.
  • The report demanded would detail how Meta identifies, moderates, and addresses hate speech on its platforms.
  • Meta's board advises shareholders to vote against the proposal, stating existing systems are sufficient.

  • The pressure on Meta comes as its Oversight Board raised concerns about the company's hate speech enforcement.
