‘Legal Experts Unimpressed with Facebook Oversight Promises’ – ‘Mashable’
Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai says, “Three months after Facebook was widely criticized for a study into user’s emotions, the social network has announced that it will be more careful when doing this type of research in the future.
The company pledged to do things “better” and in “the most responsible way” by giving its researchers “clearer guidelines,” better training, and creating an internal review panel. But in the post published on Thursday, Facebook also failed to specify what these new guidelines are and whether they will ask users for consent for sensitive experiments on “deeply personal topics.””.
