Meta is in a unique position to assist in the preservation of evidence that may be of relevance in prosecuting international crimes.
The Board recommends that Meta create a protocol to preserve and share evidence of human rights abuses with relevant authorities.

Today the Board upheld Meta's decision to leave up with a warning screen a FB post that included a video depicting identifiable prisoners of war.
Meta should develop a protocol for preserving and sharing evidence of human rights violations with appropriate authorities.

The Board finds that continuing to remove COVID-19 misinformation that is “likely to directly contribute to the risk of imminent physical harm” during a global public health emergency is consistent with Meta’s values and human rights responsibilities.
Carly Miller retweeted
In July 2022, the Board accepted a request from Meta to assess whether it should continue to remove certain categories of COVID-19 misinformation, or whether a less restrictive approach would better align with its values and human rights responsibilities.
