Meta-FB spends over $20 billion for 40,000 election censors

Over the last four years, Meta has spent over $20 billion for 40,000 censors who monitor global elections.

Who knows what their budget is for this year?

Meta is also known as Facebook (FB).

In 2017, they had 4700 election censors.

Only 28 of two million censorship incidents were reviewed between May and November 2020.

Their last ruling was anonymous and made ten days ago, taking a year to decide.

The number of Meta’s censored comments since the November 2020 Presidential Election is unknown.

After two weeks of training, it takes a censor ten seconds to remove a comment from the internet.
