Rumor-fueled vigilantism has long been common throughout the world. What's missing from this story is a real attempt to compare its extent before & after Facebook was introduced in each of these countries. https://twitter.com/Max_Fisher/status/987711315002253313 …
They try to warn one another, cry, also use to organize fleeing the lynch mob coming for them. The harm is so evident and overwhelming. I’d welcome more studies of all kinds but this really is one of those in-your-face situations. Chronic FB understaffing and lack of care.

Thanks. Have you written this up anywhere? I'd like to know more about the organized fleeing and how that compares to life during pre-Facebook assaults.

I have not. Both overwhelmed and also to the degree I follow, it’s really escape organization. Not the kind of thing to expose. This stuff would be any sane company’s number one priority. Every year has gotten drastically worse.
