Meta allowed its platforms to host a massive network of sextortion scammers and only took action when journalists began exposing their failures. Remember, this is the same company that laid off trust & safety workers to cut costs 🧵 1/3

The reality is that we can’t let the platforms grade their own homework. That's why I have been working with U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy, M.D., Senator John Cornyn, & Lori Trahan on the Platform Accountability & Transparency Act to ensure platforms are required to be transparent.coons.senate.gov/news/press-rel…

Yesterday, Meta shut down CrowdTangle, a digital tool vital in monitoring content shared on its platform. In the midst of global wars, a critical election season, and the troubling effects of social media on our children, I strongly condemn this move.
