    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?
