Facebook has been accused of tolerating posts from POTUS Donald Trump.

It has come in notice that Facebook has asked legal office in India to conduct human rights audit of its platform. Facebook doesn't want to be making rules and regulations regarding content on its platform. Facebook deploys third party companies for monitoring content.

India's Section 66A of the Information Technology Act, protects platforms from having liability for content uploaded on them.

but Trump as well as current government in India, are working to change these orders.

Infact in Australia executives can e jailed for not removing content from their platforms.

Facebook reported that in 2019 alone, 20 million posts were taken down for violation of hate speech.

If committee is not able to flag the content, the matter can reach to Mark Zuckerberg himself.

Delhi Riots were categorized as Dangerous Individuals and Organizations.
