Information & Ethics committee  In addition to the importance of having precise terminology, I think accountability is important, beyond the regulatory agency to the Parliament and the people who can be held accountable by their constituents. I would also note that it's important, especially on these issues of

Information & Ethics committee  Thank you for that question. I followed that as well from the U.S., the disinformation reporting flow that we launched in the EU and in India. I think this is one of the challenges and blessings of being a global platform—every time you turn around there's another election. We h

Information & Ethics committee  I'll just say that the companies do work together on these issues and work closely with governments. In Mr. Saini's comments, I was thinking about the role of government and how forward-leaning Estonia has been, under the thumb of Russian disinformation for a long time, in workin

Information & Ethics committee  I'm most familiar with the American context where we do have a degree of immunity. It was under the Communications Decency Act, and it was designed to give us the flexibility to implement our terms of service so that we wouldn't get sued. America is a very litigious society, as y

Information & Ethics committee  Yes, we take that responsibility extremely seriously.

Information & Ethics committee  We do. We implement the GDPR age gating procedures and are trying to figure out ways to do that in a way that protects the privacy of our users. Often you have to collect more information from minors in order to verify they are who they say they are.

Information & Ethics committee  Thank you for the question, and thank you also for distinguishing the platforms that are on here. Twitter has a single-digit share of the advertising market. We have 130-odd million daily users. We treasure them all. We work to keep their trust and to keep them engaged, and are c

Information & Ethics committee  I'd have to examine that a little bit more closely.

Information & Ethics committee  We are assessing it. I'd also note that Twitter's use of algorithms is substantially different. People can turn it off at any point.

Information & Ethics committee  We believe transparency is key. I think there are a couple of points to consider. One is that each of these algorithms is proprietary. It's important to think about those things.

Information & Ethics committee  The other is understandable. We often talk very different languages. Bad actors, and their understanding of how we do our things...and also to judge us on the outcomes and not necessarily the inputs.

Information & Ethics committee  Thank you. That is exactly the right question to ask, and one that we work on every day. I'll just note that our ability to identify, disrupt and stop malicious automation improves every day. We are now catching—I misspoke earlier—425 million accounts, which we challenged in 201

Information & Ethics committee  We are working to adjust our policies. We have things that are against our rules and we have things that aren't against our rules but that people don't like. We call it, internally, the gap. What we've been doing and what our teams have been doing is trying to break those issues

Information & Ethics committee  Trends measure the conversation in real time and try to distinguish conversations that are always having a high level of engagement, English Premier League or the Mexican election writ large. What trends are trying to identify is acceleration above the normal. When that happens o

Information & Ethics committee  We also share concerns about deepfakes. If we see the use of deepfakes to spread misinformation in a way that violates our rules, we'll take down that content.
