Zuckerberg: Clean up Whatsapp!
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and WhatsApp CEO Chris Daniels, and government regulators:
The evidence is overwhelming that WhatsApp has become a weapon of mass democratic destruction. We demand that Facebook immediately install disinformation protection for all WhatsApp users, and make encryption optional so that users can choose to assist efforts in monitoring disinformation. You must delete all fake and fraudulent accounts and correct fake news circulated on your platform.

A fascist has just been elected President of Brazil.
Jair Bolsonaro said he'd prefer a dead son to a gay son and threatened to kill 30,000 leftists and bulldoze the Amazon. And weeks ago, almost nobody wanted to vote for him. How could this happen?!
Facebook’s WhatsApp.
CEO Zuckerberg watched silently as rich companies illegally spent millions to flood the messaging platform with fake news and hate speech -- until the country trusted a racist homophobe more than anyone else. Zuckerberg could have stopped it and informed users. He didn’t.
If we don't act now, this could be replicated everywhere. It’s on us to use this moment to shame Facebook into taking responsibility for fake news and hate speech spreading on its platforms -- sign now and Avaaz will put our call on huge billboards outside Facebook’s headquarters!
