The Facebook Supreme Court lives on. Meta had already committed $130 mil in funding and they just committed another $150 mil https://t.co/JZTAHs8Co2

That’s quite a paycheck. I still think the best way to hold the company accountable would be for this Board to admit that it’s dysfunctional by design and resign. https://t.co/OXBvsGE6SC https://t.co/x7sv6B1rK5

Meta has approved a new three-year, $150 million commitment to fund the @OversightBoard and its operations. This money will go into the Oversight Board Trust, which enables the board to continue operating as a separate entity, independently from Meta. https://t.co/FJC9QtgOnO

"Today the Oversight Board Trust announced that Meta has made a commitment that provides for ongoing financial support for the Oversight Board. As part of that commitment, the company will make a $150 million contribution to the Trust." https://t.co/uF8uJKRVsV

Received $130m in 2019, now another $150m. How much does it cost to run the Oversight Board exactly? Or are they secretly building a nuclear submarine? https://t.co/gKKTS9Fil4

The Oversight Board has received another $150 million dollars from Meta, in addition to the initial $130m that resulted in 118 recommendations and 25 decisions since 2019.

That's over $900,000.00 per action, at least in the Oversight Board startup phasehttps://t.co/e4C8Lr2L1y

very interesting that Facebook is giving $150 mil more to its Oversight Board, which reviews moderation decisions gone wrong, instead of better compensating its very very poorly paid and overworked moderators who make those decisions in the first place https://t.co/DQd36SPwpi

We’re delighted to announce that Meta has committed ongoing financial support for the Board, including a new $150 million contribution to the Oversight Board Trust to support our operations. 🧵
