Shafaqna English- The oversight board of Meta urged Facebook, Instagram to lift ban on ‘ the word “Shaheed” – “martyr” in Arabic.
Meta has acknowledged that the term “Shaheed” accounts for more content removals under the company’s content moderation policy than any other single word or phrase on its platforms.
In a policy advisory note, the company’s oversight board stated: “The Board has found that Meta’s current approach disproportionately restricts free expression, is unnecessary, and that the company should end this blanket ban.”
