Moderating Content Online Will Become a BIG Industry soon
Quote from Ndubuisi Ekekwe on March 2, 2019, 1:41 PMIf U.S. Democratic Party wins the Senate in 2010, I do expect content moderation to become a big industry because Democrats may actually have a regulation that will make web companies to be responsible for contents posted in their platforms. Think about Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. So, the story on Verge will just be the beginning.
The video depicts a man being murdered. Someone is stabbing him, dozens of times, while he screams and begs for his life. Chloe’s job is to tell the room whether this post should be removed. She knows that section 13 of the Facebook community standards prohibits videos that depict the murder of one or more people. When Chloe explains this to the class, she hears her voice shaking.
