Stemming from an investigation by watchdog Global Witness and New York University’s Cybersecurity for Democracy team, the new report describes researchers’ efforts to post 20 ads with misinformation to Facebook, TikTok and YouTube.“We value feedback from [nongovernmental organizations] ... academics, and other experts which helps us continually strengthen our processes and policies,” the spokesperson said.A Meta spokesperson told the groups that their report was based on a very small sample size and doesn’t represent the political ads that the company reviews daily from around the world.Google, in a statement to The Associated Press on Friday, wrote that the company has “developed extensive measures to tackle misinformation” on its platforms, including false claims about elections and voting.“Coming up with the tech and then washing their hands of the impact is just not responsible behaviour from these massive companies that are raking in the dollars,” Lloyd said in the press release."
