All of the large social platforms have content moderation\u00a0policies<\/a>.<\/p>\n

No belly fat ads, no ads that discriminate based on race, color or sexual orientation, no ads that include claims debunked by third-party fact-checkers \u2013 no ads that exploit crises or controversial political issues.<\/p>\n

No graphic content or glorification of violence, no doxxing, no threats, no child sexual exploitation, nothing that promotes terrorism or violent extremism. And on and on.<\/p>\n

The policies sound good on paper. But policies are tested in practice.<\/p>\n

Joshua Lowcock, chief digital & global brand safety officer, UM<\/strong><\/p>\n

The major platforms are frequently caught flatfooted because it appears they spend insufficient time planning for worse-case outcomes and are ill-equipped to act rapidly when the moment arrives. Whether this is a leadership failure, groupthink or lack of diversity in leadership is up for debate.<\/p>\n

At the heart of the challenge is that most platforms misappropriate the concept of \u201cfree speech.\u201d<\/p>\n

Leaders at the major platforms should read Austrian philosopher Karl Popper and his work, \u201cOpen Society and Its Enemies<\/a>,\u201d to understand the\u00a0intolerance paradox<\/a>. We must be intolerant of intolerance. The Russian invasion of Ukraine is a case in point.<\/p>\n
