        The “precise and specific actions” called for in that article, specifically for the purpose of combating speech that encourages violence, like homophobia or white supremacy:

        • Reveal who is paying for advertisements, how much they are paying and who is being targeted.

        • Commit to meaningful transparency of platform algorithms so we know how and what content is being amplified, to whom, and the associated impact.

        • Turn on by default the tools to amplify factual voices over disinformation.

        • Work with independent researchers to facilitate in-depth studies of the platforms’ impact on people and our societies, and what we can do to improve things.

        What’s your problem here?

          This, because it’s a fucking web browser, and it can be weaponized for bad while pretending to be good.
