      With FB algorithmically pushing "live" to top of every news feed, what did they think was going to happen? This was so so so predictable.

      Sure, car companies could be more profitable if they didn't have to invest in safety or fuel efficiency, and just focus on "engagement."

      We already have who-knows-how-many low-paid workers in third world who watch unimaginably horrible stuff all day. How much can it expand?

      Given how difficult & important the job is, a company with right priorities would employ them at high pay & support.https://twitter.com/WillOremus/status/859789234886017025 …

      I asked Facebook whether the 3,000 new content-moderation jobs will be employees or contractors. The company declined to comment.

      @zeynep : we agree on a lot of things, but how many staff is "enough staff"? “A Billion Grains of Rice”https://medium.com/@alecmuffett/a-billion-grains-of-rice-91202220e10e …

      A half-a-trillion market cap company can and should do a lot more staff. If you don't have staff, don't launch the service.

      There are lots of things that can be done, but should not be done if we don't know how to do it without major harm...

      I think you and I would stand united against calling for infrastructure to censor & chill speech, but it's OK to chill/censor #FacebookLive?

      Tragedy is tragic & there are always those who'll use free speech/a free press for things that are "sick", but filter _everything_ for this?

      Aside from anything else, what happens when some dictator turns around and demands the same filter be applied to political protest?

      You tell the dictator no. This isn't hard. You block streaming of murder; you don't block political protest. I don't see what the issue is.

          hard to block something that is over in a small number of minutes (take down post facto, sure)
