Lisa Kalayji<p>"Meta has scraped data from the most-trafficked domains on the internet... to train its artificial intelligence models.</p><p>The sites that Meta scrapes consist of copyrighted content, pirated content, and adult videos, some of whose content is potentially illegally obtained or recorded, as well as news and original content from prominent outlets and content publishers. They include mainstream businesses like Getty Images, Shopify, Shutterstock, but also extreme pornographic content, including websites advertising explicit sexual content and humiliation porn that exploits teenagers.</p><p>In addition to the most recent disclosure of the websites used to train the company’s AI models, whistleblowers have provided data showing other confidential company data, including data revealing a massive campaign to censor and deplatform pro-Palestinian content on Meta platforms, as well as advertising data showing decreases in the effectiveness of Israeli ad expenditures. Some senior policy officials at the company who have been involved in censoring content are also previously veterans of the Israeli government, including Jordana Cutler, Meta's policy chief for Israel and the Jewish Diaspora, who previously served five years as an adviser to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu."</p><p><a href="https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/meta-facebook-tech-copyright-privacy-whistleblower" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">dropsitenews.com/p/meta-facebo</span><span class="invisible">ok-tech-copyright-privacy-whistleblower</span></a></p><p><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Meta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Meta</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Surveillance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Surveillance</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Privacy</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/IntellectualProperty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IntellectualProperty</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Israel</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Genocide" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Genocide</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/Gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gaza</span></a></p>
