NEW DELHI: Facebook<\/a><\/span> India Head Ajit Mohan<\/a> has defended the handling of alleged hate speeches by members of the ruling BJP<\/a>, saying the platform has remained true to its design of being neutral<\/span> and non-partisan and acted based on inputs from various teams.

In an interview with PTI, Mohan rejected charges of Facebook<\/span> India's decisions being influenced by political leanings of individuals, saying the process followed at the platform is designed to ensure no one person can influence outcomes, let alone take any unilateral decisions.

\"The content policy of team that is at the centre of all the enforcement decisions (on hate speeches) is separate and independent in India from the public policy team (that handles government relations),\" he said. \"It's designed for independence.\"

And the content management team is guided by only community standards. \"And enforcement of that has to be objective, has to be non-partisan and neutral<\/span>. I think that goes to the heart of how the platform has been designed from day one,\" he asserted.

Individuals can have \"points of views\" or \"leanings\", the \"system is designed to make sure no one person can influence the outcomes,\" he said.

\"And so the answer is yes,\" he said replying to a question on whether Facebook<\/span> is a non-partisan and politically neutral<\/span> entity.

The comments come amid a political storm over a report published in the Wall Street Journal last month, alleging the social media giant ignored extremist posts by ruling Bharatiya Janata Party leaders in order to protect its business interests in India.

According to the report, Facebook<\/span> deleted anti-Muslim posts by BJP's Telangana MLA T Raja Singh and three other Hindu nationalists only after being questioned by the paper. Facebook<\/span>'s head of public policy Ankhi Das, the report said citing company employees, had opposed the deletion of the posts despite being flagged internally as breaching standards.

Facebook<\/span> earlier this month banned the 42-year-old Telangana MLA, categorising him as a \"dangerous individual\".

Mohan said there are no limits to respectable standard for free speech within and outside the company.

While there are people from multiple political leanings and backgrounds in the company, Facebook<\/span> values people of experience in government or in public service.

\"But at the same time, I think it is important to call out to you that the content policy of a team that is at the centre of all of these enforcement decisions is separate and independent in India from the public policy team here. It's designed for independence. So the public policy team that engages with government, for example, central and state governments, is a part of my team. That is separate from the content policy team which is part of the global team,\" he said.

\"So, I think the point is while people can have points of view, they can have leanings, the system is designed to make sure no one person can influence the outcomes, let alone have any unilateral decision making power on this aspect. The separation in India context tells you how design is meant for independence,\" he said.

Mohan said the content moderation is largely done through automated systems and human reviewers.

In dealing with complex issues such as designating individuals, especially elected officials, the content policy team comes into play.

\"The public policy team does seek inputs from multiple functions and disciplines and teams including public policy team in India. That is not interference. That is the process, that is being designed to have enough local context from the local team,\" he said. \"But finally the decision that is taken is not taken by the public policy team.\"

\"So you have the opportunity in certain cases like designation, from multiple local and international teams, to provide a point of view that is by design. But it is not for them to take any unilateral decision. That still goes through the content policy team,\" he said.

Facebook<\/span> has over 300 million users in India, while its associate WhatsApp is the leader in messaging with over 400 million users.

In April this year, Facebook<\/span> invested USD 5.7 billion to buy a 9.9 per cent stake in Jio Platforms, the digital arm of energy-to-telecom conglomerate Reliance Industries Ltd owned by India's richest man Mukesh Ambani.

Mohan said Facebook<\/span> has an impartial approach to dealing with content and that this is governed strongly by its community standards. These policies are enforced globally without regard to anyone's political position, party affiliation or religious and cultural beliefs, he emphasised.

\"That is the basis and enforcement of that has to be objective, has to be non-partisan and neutral<\/span>. I think that goes to the heart of how the platform has been designed from day one. It goes to the heart of something all of us embrace, that we have to be neutral<\/span>, we have to be non-partisan,\" he added.

和内容管理团队指导下只有社区标准。”和执行必须是客观的,必须是无党派中性。我认为去心脏的平台设计从一开始,”他断言。

个人可以有“观点”或“倾向”,在“系统设计,确保没有一个人能影响结果,”他说。

“所以,答案是肯定的,”他回答一个问题是否说脸谱网是一个非党派和政治吗中性实体。

评论之际,一场政治风暴在上个月在《华尔街日报》发表的一份报告,称社交媒体巨头忽略极端帖子统治印度人民党领导人为了保护其在印度的商业利益。

根据这份报告,脸谱网建邦者删除反穆斯林的贴子人民党纳MLA T拉辛格和其他三名印度教民族主义者只有在被质疑。脸谱网公共政策主管Ankhi Das,报告援引公司员工说,反对删除的帖子,尽管被内部标记为违反标准。

脸谱网本月早些时候禁止建邦者42岁的纳MLA,将他归类为“危险的个人”。

莫汉说,有言论自由没有限制的标准在公司内外。

“但与此同时,我认为这是重要的呼唤你,内容政策中心的一个团队的所有这些执法决策在印度独立和独立的公共政策团队。它是专为独立。所以与政府的公共政策小组,例如,中央政府和邦政府,是一个团队的一部分。这是独立于内容政策团队全球团队的一部分,”他说。

“所以,我认为关键是当人们的观点,他们可以有倾向,这一制度的目的是确保没有一个人能影响结果,更不用说对这方面任何单方面的决策权力。在印度分离上下文告诉你如何设计适合独立,”他说。

莫汉说,适度的内容在很大程度上是通过自动化系统和人类的评论家。

在处理复杂的问题,如指定个人,尤其是民选官员,内容政策团队发挥作用了。

“公共政策团队寻求来自多个函数的输入和学科和团队包括公共政策团队在印度。这不是干涉。是一个过程,设计有足够的当地情况从本地团队,”他说。”,但最后的决定,不是由公共政策团队。”

“所以你有机会在某些情况下喜欢设计,从多个本地及国际团队,提供一个设计的观点。但这并不是对他们采取任何单方面决定。仍然通过内容政策团队,”他说。

脸谱网在印度拥有超过3亿用户,而其副WhatsApp领袖与超过4亿个用户消息。

今年4月,脸谱网投资57亿美元购买9.9%的股份Jio平台、数字energy-to-telecom集团的子公司信实工业有限公司旗下的印度首富穆凯什•安巴尼。

莫汉说脸谱网有一个公正的处理内容和方法,这是由它的社区治理的强烈的标准。在全球范围内执行这些政策不考虑任何人的政治地位,政党或宗教和文化信仰,他强调。

”的基础和执行必须是客观的,必须是无党派中性。我认为去的核心平台如何从一开始就被设计。它的核心东西我们拥抱,我们中性我们必须无党派,”他补充道。
