To Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, 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.

Zuckerberg: Clean up WhatsApp!
This is terrifying — the man just elected President of Brazil said he’d bulldoze the Amazon, threatened to kill 30,000 "leftists", and praised dictatorships. 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 fringe fascist more than anyone else.

Zuckerberg could have stopped it and informed users. He didn’t. Now it’s on us to use this moment to shame Facebook into taking responsibility for fake news and hate speech spreading on its platforms -- and end it before more men like Brazil’s President use it to whip up support for their terrible agenda.
