All tech companies need to be more transparent about when & how world leaders, governments, & political parties violate a given health or civic integrity, & all enforcement actions then taken: https://t.co/RHHaoqDvRy @twittercomms’ “no comment” on individual accounts isn’t viable https://t.co/yZDSbtFho5 pic.twitter.com/d6zlALYSKB

"A new report concludes that social networks aren't systematically biased against conservatives, directly contradicting Republican claims that social media companies are censoring them."

SURPRISE!https://t.co/iDV6ALrtmr
If a platform removes lies, it will disproportionately affect liars.

This reflects a bias towards facts, not against conservatives or progressives.
If fat-right nationalists lie more, civic integrity policies will affect them more, & they will claim biashttps://t.co/aJBiSpjxBR https://t.co/z3O3hk3I5j pic.twitter.com/tQwrCkwN4F
Key sentence in this overview debunking right-wing claims of social-media bias: “the leaders of the social media platforms are acutely aware of conservative criticism—and are determined to placate, rather than antagonize, the political right.” https://t.co/g4oD6gKXMM

There's a useful new report about alleged left-wing social media company bias by folks at NYU Stern School of Business. @AuthorPMBarrett and co basically find it's made up.https://t.co/91peVKs3t7 https://t.co/n7MGEtDqif pic.twitter.com/wVfe91uPqX

New: FB researchers warned execs late last summer that 70% of the platform’s most active civic Groups were toxic. Facebook quietly began reining Groups in – then scrambled as the measures weren’t enough. https://t.co/Aqe4yQitfX

When politicians fail to “work the ref” to bully companies into exempting their lies from civic & election integrity policies, they claim ideologically-driven censorship is “silencing” them — like attacking journalists for “bias” to delegitimize reporting https://t.co/aJBiSpjxBR pic.twitter.com/q9JGZUl9rA

"researchers today released a report stating claims of anti-conservative bias are 'a form of disinformation: a falsehood with no reliable evidence to support it.'" via @Cat_Zakrzewski https://t.co/K2HgY3MqCT

There is no anti-conservative bias on social media. In fact, researchers found the opposite: The most viral right-wing content about Black Lives Matter was shared more than ten times as often as the most popular liberal posts https://t.co/cdQzMP0Hsv @Cat_Zakrzewski
