"[Mark Zuckerberg’s] speech also received plenty of negative responses, but most were not visible during the talk because of how the algorithms behind a live stream with tens of thousands of viewers work."

When I watched Facebook’s livestream of the Zuck lecture on free speech, all I saw was a stream of ?s & ❤️s.

So I left an ? and ... it didn't show up.
As @heatherkelly discovered, this is how Facebook thinks "free speech" is supposed to work: https://t.co/oVaLFVmdih

ARE YOU KIDDING ME? RIGGED COMMENTS?
On Facebook’s live stream, Zuckerberg’s free-speech lecture got a big thumbs up.
Viewers ONLY saw positive comments during the live stream.
Negative comments were shown after speech ended. https://t.co/vuO0su2wZs
Viewers saw nearly entirely positive comments and emoji because: algorithms. https://t.co/TVCzH8PgXl

This is similar to how the Uber map was found not to be showing the real-time location of cars. The 'thumbs-up' and 'heart' emojis floating over a FB video aren't a reflection of real-time reax, and the algorithm in this case filtered out angry/sad faces https://t.co/AoX4K2I7YL

As Zuckerberg, in a live Broadcast, touted Facebook’s role in protecting free speech, the company’s own algorithm automatically removed nearly all comments that were critical of his talk. From @heatherkelly https://t.co/oUa2iNxczh

Why did Facebook show almost entirely positive comments on Zuckerberg's live-streamed free speech talk? It's just the algorithm, you see... https://t.co/6O8cpjULMN
— Heather Kelly (@heatherkelly) October 17, 2019
Well, who is surprised that the algorithms filtered data? https://t.co/rQsj68hx61

Zuckerberg says Facebook plays a critical role in safeguarding democratic values online.
— Nicholas Miller (@nicholasrmiller) October 18, 2019
Whereas the truth is that Facebook completely undermines democracy.https://t.co/UWpGwXiV9l via @WSJ
One Zuckerberg quote that will stick with me: “People having the power to express themselves at scale is a new kind of force in the world. It is a Fifth Estate alongside the other power structures of society.” Read more from @WSJ here: https://t.co/U2K98fH8Ld

I’m all for free speech. But nowhere is it in our Constitution that free speech should be conducted anonymously or by malign foreign actors who falsify their identities. Or did I miss something? https://t.co/70CfheIjGe
