Whistleblower: Facebook 'unquestionably making hate worse'
A former Facebook employee has said the social media platform is "unquestionably making hate worse" as she criticised its algorithms for prioritising "polarising, extreme, divisive content".
Taking questions from MPs and peers, Frances Haugen said: "It doesn't matter if you're on the left or the right, it pushes you to the extremes … anger and hate is the easiest way to grow on Facebook." Report by Buseld.

A Moroccan asylum seeker has been sentenced to life in jail for murder, with a minimum term of 45 years, at Teesside Crown Court. In October last year, 45-year-old Ahmed Alid stabbed Iranian Christian convert Javed Nouri at the house he was sharing with other asylum seekers before looking for more victims in Hartlepool town centre. He then stabbed and killed 70-year-old Terence Carney who was out for his regular early morning walk. Alid told police he had committed his crimes out of “revenge” for Israel killing children in the Palestinian conflict. Report by Jonesia.
