      Oh, wow. Wow especially since in Germany, Facebook has been forced, through fines, to hire many moderators to respond to hate speech. If this finding holds, imagine the effect around in places Facebook has been terribly understaffed and unresponsive for years—Burma, Sri Lanka...https://twitter.com/elipariser/status/1031983483151892480 …

      This research suggests that Facebook specifically drove 1/10th of anti-refugee violence in Germany, after accounting for a bunch of other factors. Didn't correlate with general web use, just Facebook: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/21/world/europe/facebook-refugee-attacks-germany.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=first-column-region&region=top-news&WT.nav=top-news …

      I am skeptical about the statistical inference here. Note that their robustness checks with alternative (more reasonable) choices of standard errors do not include the critical results based on Internet/FB outages. My uncharitable guess: it didn't remain significant.

      Just the kind of topic internal Facebook data would be extraordinarily useful! Too many such studies are underpowered and/or not great causal design, but that's not really their fault. Hate speech/violence link is such an important Q but hard to study causally.

          Why would internal data be particularly useful here? Many threats to validity for this work are more basic than that.

          I don't think internal data solves all these problems. Some things are just very hard to study because the world involves some things, even at the country-level, that have effective N=1 or N=20.
