Facebook’s Spanish Language Disinformation Gap

Despite repeated efforts by the undersigned groups to alert you of this issue throughout this election cycle, Facebook did very little to curb Spanish-language disinformation campaigns attempting to influence and divide Latinx voters. As disinformation campaigns continue to proliferate post-election, we urgently implore you to address this ongoing issue.

September 22

LETTER: Facebook’s complacency in organized hate is killing our communities.

To truly protect the privacy, civil rights, and dignity of the Latinx community, it is paramount that Facebook take meaningful action to ensure that those who are designing and making life-altering decisions behind the scenes mirror the audiences who are most served and impacted by Facebook’s products.
