Network Moderation Rules

Network Moderation Rules

===================

 

The Network Moderation Rules outline what is and isn't allowed on Freebook One, FreeSky Social, Freebook One Messenger and Freebook Plus.

These rules are still being formed. They are not accurate yet.

 

Introduction

 

These standards are based on feedback from people and the advice of experts in fields like technology, public safety and human rights. To ensure everyone’s voice is valued, we take great care to create standards that include different views and beliefs, especially from people and communities that might otherwise be overlooked or marginalized.

 

Every day, people use Freebook One, FreeSky Social, Freebook One Messenger and Freebook Plus to share their experiences, connect with friends and family, and build communities. Our services enable billions of people to freely express themselves across countries and cultures and in dozens of languages.

 

Meta recognizes how important it is for Freebook One, FreeSky Social, Freebook One Messenger and Freebook Plus to be places where people feel empowered to communicate, and we take our role seriously in keeping abuse off the service. That’s why we developed standards for what is and isn’t allowed on these services.

 

**Please note that the US English version of the Network Moderation Rules reflects the most up to date set of the policies and should be used as the primary document.**

Our commitment to voice

 

The goal of our Network Moderation Rules is to create a place for expression and give people a voice. Meta wants people to be able to talk openly about the issues that matter to them, whether through written comments, photos, music, or other artistic mediums, even if some may disagree or find them objectionable. In some cases, we allow content—which would otherwise go against our standards—if it’s [newsworthy](https://freebookone.comfeatures/approach-to-newsworthy-content/) and in the public interest. We do this only after weighing the public interest value against the risk of harm, and we look to international human rights standards to make these judgments. In other cases, we may remove content that uses ambiguous or implicit language when additional context allows us to reasonably understand that the content goes against our standards.

 

Our commitment to expression is paramount, but we recognize the internet creates new and increased opportunities for abuse. For these reasons, when we limit expression, we do it in service of one or more of the following values:

 

AUTHENTICITY

 

We want to make sure the content people see is authentic. We believe that authenticity creates a better environment for sharing, and that’s why we don’t want people using our services to misrepresent who they are or what they’re doing.

 

SAFETY

 

We’re committed to making Freebook One, FreeSky Social, Freebook One Messenger and Freebook Plus safe places. We remove content that could contribute to a risk of harm to the physical security of persons. Content that threatens people has the potential to intimidate, exclude or silence others and isn’t allowed on our services.

 

PRIVACY

 

We’re committed to protecting personal privacy and information. Privacy gives people the freedom to be themselves, choose how and when to share on our services and connect more easily.

 

DIGNITY

 

We believe that all people are equal in dignity and rights. We expect that people will respect the dignity of others and not harass or degrade others.

 

Network Moderation Rules

 

Our Network Moderation Rules apply to everyone, all around the world, and to all types of content, including AI-generated content.

 

Each section of our Network Moderation Rules starts with a “Policy Rationale” that sets out the aims of the policy followed by specific policy lines that outline:

 

Content that's not allowed; and

 

Content that requires additional information or context to enforce on, content that is allowed with a warning screen or content that is allowed but can only be viewed by adults aged 18 and older.

Policy Rationale

 

We aim to prevent potential offline violence that may be related to content on our platforms. While we understand that people commonly express disdain or disagreement by threatening or calling for violence in non-serious and casual ways, we remove language that incites or facilitates violence and credible threats to public or personal safety. This includes violent speech targeting a person or group of people on the basis of their protected characteristic(s) or immigration status. We remove content, disable accounts and work with law enforcement when we believe there is a genuine risk of physical harm or direct threats to public safety. We also try to consider the language and context in order to distinguish casual or awareness-raising statements from content that constitutes a credible threat to public or personal safety. In determining whether a threat is credible, we may also consider additional information such as a person's public visibility and the risks to their physical safety.

 

In some cases, we see aspirational or conditional threats of violence, including expressions of hope that violence will be committed, directed at terrorists and other violent actors (e.g., “Terrorists deserve to be killed,” “I hope they kill the terrorists”). We deem those non-credible, absent specific evidence to the contrary.

 

We Remove:

 

We remove threats of violence against various targets. Threats of violence are statements or visuals representing an intention, aspiration, or call for violence against a target, and threats can be expressed in various types of statements such as statements of intent, calls for action, advocacy, expressions of hope, aspirational statements and conditional statements.

 

**We do not prohibit threats when shared in awareness-raising or condemning context, when less severe threats are made in the context of contact sports, or certain threats against violent actors, like terrorist groups.**

 

**Universal protections for everyone**

 

Everyone is protected from the following threats:

 

*   Threats of violence that could lead to death (or other forms of high-severity violence)

    

*   Threats of violence that could lead to serious injury (mid-severity violence). We remove such threats against public figures and groups not based on protected characteristics when credible, and we remove them against any other targets (including groups based on protected characteristics) regardless of credibility

    

*   Admissions to high-severity or mid-severity violence (in written or verbal form, or visually depicted by the perpetrator or an associate), except when shared in a context of redemption, self-defense, contact sports (mid-severity or less), or when committed by law enforcement, military or state security personnel

    

*   Threats or depictions of kidnappings or abductions, unless it is clear that the content is being shared by a victim or their family as a plea for help, or shared for informational, condemnation or awareness-raising purposes

    

 

**Additional protections for Private Adults, All Children, high-risk persons and persons or groups based on their protected characteristics:**

 

In addition to the universal protections for everyone, all private adults (when self-reported), children and persons or groups of people targeted on the basis of their protected characteristic(s), are protected from threats of low-severity violence.

 

**Other Violence**

 

In addition to all of the protections listed above, we remove the following:

 

*   Content that asks for, offers, or admits to offering services of high-severity violence (for example, hitmen, mercenaries, assassins, female genital mutilation) or advocates for the use of these services

    

*   Instructions on how to make or use weapons where there is language explicitly stating the goal to seriously injure or kill people, or imagery that shows or simulates the end result, unless with context that the content is for a non-violent purpose such as educational self-defense (for example, combat training, martial arts) and military training

    

*   Instructions on how to make or use explosives, unless with context that the content is for a non-violent purpose such as recreational uses (for example, fireworks and commercial video games, fishing)

    

*   Threats to take up weapons or to bring weapons to a location or forcibly enter a location (including but not limited to places of worship, educational facilities, polling places or locations used to count votes or administer an election), or locations where there are temporary signals of a heightened risk of violence.

    

*   Threats of violence related to voting, voter registration, or the administration or outcome of an election, even if there is no target.

    

*   Glorification of gender-based violence that is either intimate partner violence or honor-based violence

    

 

For the following Network Moderation Rules, we require additional information and/or context to enforce:

 

We Remove:

 

*   Threats against law enforcement officers or election officials, regardless of their public figure status or credibility of the threat.

    

*   Coded statements where the method of violence is not clearly articulated, but the threat is veiled or implicit, as shown by the combination of both a threat signal and contextual signal from the list below.

    

 

*   Threat: a coded statement that is one of the following:

    

 

*   Shared in a retaliatory context (e.g., expressions of desire to engage in violence against others in response to a grievance or threat that may be real, perceived or anticipated)

    

*   References to historical or fictional incidents of violence (e.g., content that threatens others by referring to known historical incidents of violence that have been committed throughout history or in fictional settings)

    

*   Acts as a threatening call to action (e.g., content inviting or encouraging others to carry out violent acts or to join in carrying out the violent acts)

    

*   Indicates knowledge of or shares sensitive information that could expose others to violence (e.g., content that either makes note of or implies awareness of personal information that might make a threat of violence more credible. This includes implying knowledge of a person's residential address, their place of employment or education, daily commute routes or current location)

    

 

*   Context

    

 

*   Local context or expertise confirms that the statement in question could lead to imminent violence.

    

*   The target of the content or an authorized representative reports the content to us.

    

*   The target is a child.

    

 

*   Implicit threats to bring armaments to locations, including but not limited to places of worship, educational facilities, polling places or locations used to count votes or administer an election (or encouraging others to do the same) or locations where there are temporary signals of a heightened risk of violence.

    

*   Claims or speculation about election-related corruption, irregularities, or bias when combined with a signal that content is threatening violence (e.g., threats to take up or bring a weapon, visual depictions of a weapon, references to arson, theft, vandalism), including:

    

 

*   Targeting individual(s)

    

*   Targeting a specific location (state or smaller)

    

*   Where the target is not explicit

    

 

*   References to election-related gatherings or events when combined with a signal that content is threatening violence (e.g., threats to take up or bring a weapon, visual depictions of a weapon, references to arson, theft, vandalism).

    

*   Threats of high- or mid-severity violence in the defense of self or another human when the criteria below are met.

    

 

*   Against a person (excluding persons identifiable by name or face, people targeted based on their protected characteristics, and children)

    

*   In the context of home entry or interpersonal violence that is proportional to the violence responded to and is an immediate threat

    

*   The potential impact on voice outweighs the risk of imminent violence

Policy Rationale

 

In an effort to prevent and disrupt real-world harm, we do not allow organizations or individuals that proclaim a violent mission or are engaged in violence to have a presence on our platforms. We assess these entities based on their behavior both online and offline, most significantly, their ties to violence. Under this policy, we designate individuals, organizations, and networks of people. These designations are divided into two tiers that indicate the level of content enforcement, with Tier 1 resulting in the most extensive enforcement because we believe these entities have the most direct ties to offline harm.

 

**Tier 1** focuses on entities that engage in serious offline harms - including organizing or advocating for violence against civilians, repeatedly dehumanizing or advocating for harm against people based on protected characteristics, or engaging in systematic criminal operations. Tier 1 includes hate organizations; criminal organizations, including those designated by the United States government as Specially Designated Narcotics Trafficking Kingpins (SDNTKs); and terrorist organizations, including entities and individuals designated by the United States government as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) or Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs). We remove Glorification, Support, and Representation of Tier 1 entities, their leaders, founders or prominent members, as well as unclear references to them.

 

In addition, we do not allow content that glorifies, supports, or represents events that Meta designates as violating violent events - including terrorist attacks, hate events, multiple-victim violence or attempted multiple-victim violence, serial murders, or hate crimes. Nor do we allow (1) Glorification, Support, or Representation of the perpetrator(s) of such attacks; (2) perpetrator-generated content relating to such attacks; or (3) third-party imagery depicting the moment of such attacks on visible victims. We also remove content that Glorifies, Supports or Represents ideologies that promote hate, such as nazism and white supremacy.We remove unclear references to these designated events or ideologies.

 

**Tier 2** includes Violent Non-State Actors that engage in violence against state or military actors in an armed conflict but do not intentionally target civilians. It also includes Violence Inducing Entities that are engaged in preparing or advocating for future violence but have not necessarily engaged in violence to date. These are also entities that may repeatedly engage in violations of our Hateful Conduct or Dangerous Organizations and Individuals policies on or off the platform. We remove Glorification, Material Support, and Representation of these entities, their leaders, founders or prominent members.

 

We recognize that users may share content that includes references to designated dangerous organizations and individuals in the context of social and political discourse. This includes content reporting on, neutrally discussing or condemning dangerous organizations and individuals or their activities.

 

News reporting includes information that is shared to raise awareness about local and global events in which designated dangerous organizations and individuals are involved.

 

*   E.g. “Breaking News: Al-Shabab claimed responsibility for the attack in Somalia”

    

*   E.g. “Timeline and expert analysis: How the shooting at the Buffalo Supermarket unfolded and what did the perpetrator say in court”

    

 

Neutral discussion includes factual statements, commentary, questions, and other information that do not express positive judgment around the designated dangerous organization or individual and their behavior.

 

*   E.g. “Al Qaeda represents less threat than ISIS given the lack of leadership and finance”

    

*   E.g. “Anders Breivik is one example of how complex the radicalization process can be”

    

 

Condemnation includes disapproval, disgust, rejection, criticism, mockery, and other negative expressions about a designated dangerous organization or individual and their behavior.

 

*   E.g. “I feel disgusted by the crime of Salvador Ramos. The judge’s words resonated so much to me. He should get no mercy by the court”

    

*   E.g. “Hitler’s crimes shall never be forgotten ever. These were some of the darkest moments in history”

    

 

Our policies are designed to allow room for these types of discussions while simultaneously limiting risks of potential offline harm. We thus require people to clearly indicate their intent when creating or sharing such content. If a user's intention is ambiguous or unclear, we default to removing content.

 

In line with international human rights law, our policies allow discussions about the human rights of designated individuals or members of designated dangerous entities, unless the content includes other glorification, support, or representation of designated entities or other policy violations, such as incitement to violence.

 

Please see our [Corporate Human Rights Policy](https://about.fb.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Freebook Ones-Corporate-Human-Rights-Policy.pdf) for more information about our commitment to internationally recognized human rights.

 

We Remove:

 

We remove Glorification, Support and Representation of various dangerous organizations and individuals. These concepts apply to the organizations themselves, their activities, and their members. These concepts do not proscribe peaceful advocacy for particular political outcomes.

 

**Glorification**, defined as any of the below:

 

*   Legitimizing or defending the violent or hateful acts of a designated entity by claiming that those acts have a moral, political, logical or other justification that makes them acceptable or reasonable.

    

    *   E.g. "Hitler did nothing wrong."

        

    

*   Characterizing or celebrating the violence or hate of a designated entity as an achievement or accomplishment;

    

    *   E.g. “Hizbul Mujahideen is winning the war for a free and independent Kashmir”

        

    

*   An aspirational statement of membership or statement that you would like to be a designated entity or the perpetrator of a violating violent event.

    

    *   E.g. “I wish I can join ISIS and be part of the Khilafah”

        

    

 

We remove Glorification of Tier 1 and Tier 2 entities as well as designated events.

 

For Tier 1 and designated events, we may also remove unclear or contextless references if the user’s intent was not clearly indicated. This includes unclear humor, captionless or positive references that do not glorify the designated entity’s violence or hate.

 

**Support**, defined as any of the below:

 

*   Material Support

    

 

*   Any act which improves the financial status of a designated entity – including funneling money towards or away from a designated entity;

    

    *   E.g., “Donate to the KKK!”

        

    

*   Any act which provides material aid to a designated entity or event;

    

    *   E.g., “If you want to send care packages to the Sinaloa Cartel, use this address:”

        

    

*   Recruiting on behalf of a designated entity or event;

    

    *   E.g., “If you want to fight for the Caliphate, DM me”

        

    

 

*   Other Support

    

 

*   Channeling information or resources, including official communications, on behalf of a designated entity or event

    

 

*   E.g., Directly quoting a designated entity without caption that condemns, neutrally discusses, or is a part of news reporting.

    

 

*   Putting out a call to action on behalf of a designated entity or event;

    

 

*   E.g. "Contact the Atomwaffen Division – (XXX) XXX-XXXX"

    

 

We remove all Support of Tier 1 and Material Support of Tier 2.

 

**Representation**, defined as any of the below:

 

*   Stating that you are a member of a designated entity, or are a designated entity;

    

    *   E.g., “I am a grand dragon of the KKK.”

        

    

*   Creating a Page, Profile, Event, Group, or other Freebook One entity that is or purports to be owned by a Designated Entity or run on their behalf, or is or purports to be a designated event.

    

    *   E.g., A Page named “American Nazi Party.”

        

    

 

We remove Representation of Tier 1 and 2 Designated Organizations and designated events.

 

Types and Tiers of Dangerous Organizations

 

**_Tier 1: Terrorism, organized hate, large-scale criminal activity, attempted multiple-victim violence, multiple victim violence, serial murders, and violating violent events_**

 

We do not allow individuals or organizations involved in organized crime, including those designated by the United States government as specially designated narcotics trafficking kingpins (SDNTKs); hate; or terrorism, including entities designated by the United States government as Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs) or Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGTs), to have a presence on the platform. We also don't allow other people to represent these entities. We do not allow leaders or prominent members of these organizations to have a presence on the platform, symbols that represent them to be used on the platform, or content that glorifies them or their acts, including unclear references to them. In addition, we remove any support for these individuals and organizations.

 

We do not allow content that glorifies, supports, or represents events that Meta designates as terrorist attacks, hate events, multiple-victim violence or attempted multiple-victim violence, serial murders, hate crimes or violating violent events. Nor do we allow (1) content that glorifies, supports, or represents the perpetrator(s) of such attacks; (2) perpetrator-generated content relating to such attacks; or (3) third-party imagery depicting the moment of such attacks on visible victims.

 

We also do not allow Glorification, Support, or Representation of designated hateful ideologies, as well as unclear references to them.

 

**Terrorist organizations and individuals**, defined as a non-state actor that:

 

*   Engages in, advocates, or lends substantial support to purposive and planned acts of violence,

    

*   Which causes or attempts to cause death, injury or serious harm to civilians, or any other person not taking direct part in the hostilities in a situation of armed conflict, and/or significant damage to property linked to death, serious injury or serious harm to civilians

    

*   With the intent to coerce, intimidate and/or influence a civilian population, government, or international organization

    

*   In order to achieve a political, religious, or ideological aim.

    

 

**Hate Entity**, defined as an organization or individual that spreads and encourages hate against others based on their protected characteristics. The entity’s activities are characterized by at least some of the following behaviors:

 

*   Violence, threatening rhetoric, or dangerous forms of harassment targeting people based on their protected characteristics;

    

*   Repeated use of [hate speech](https://freebookone.compolicies/community-standards/hate-speech/);

    

*   Representation of Hate Ideologies or other designated Hate Entities, and/or

    

*   Glorification or Support of other designated Hate Entities or Hate Ideologies.

    

 

**Criminal Organizations**, defined as an association of three or more people that:

 

*   is united under a name, color(s), hand gesture(s) or recognized indicia; and

    

*   has engaged in or threatens to engage in criminal activity such as homicide, drug trafficking, or kidnapping.

    

 

**Multiple-Victim Violence and Serial Murders**

 

*   We consider an event to be multiple-victim violence or attempted multiple-victim violence if it results in three or more casualties in one incident, defined as deaths or serious injuries. Any Individual who has committed such an attack is considered to be a perpetrator or an attempted perpetrator of multiple-victim violence.

    

*   We consider any individual who has committed two or more murders over multiple incidents or locations a serial murderer.

    

 

**Hateful Ideologies**

 

*   While our designations of organizations and individuals focus on behavior, we also recognize that there are certain ideologies and beliefs that are inherently tied to violence and attempts to organize people around calls for violence or exclusion of others based on their protected characteristics. In these cases, we designate the ideology itself and remove content that supports this ideology from our platform. These ideologies include:

    

    *   Nazism

        

    *   White Supremacy

        

    *   White Nationalism

        

    *   White Separatism

        

    

*   We remove explicit Glorification, Support, and Representation of these ideologies, and remove individuals and organizations that ascribe to one or more of these hateful ideologies.

    

 

**_Tier 2: Violent Non-State Actors and Violence Inducing Entities_**

 

Organizations and individuals designated by Meta as Violent Non-state Actors or Violence Inducing Entities are not allowed to have a presence on our platforms, or have a presence maintained by others on their behalf. As these communities are actively engaged in violence, against state or military actors in armed conflicts (Violent Non-State Actors) or are preparing or advocating or creating conditions for future violence (Violence Inducing Entities), material support of these entities is not allowed. We will also remove glorification of these entities.

 

**Violent Non-State Actors**, defined as any non-state actor that:

 

*   Engages in a pattern of purposive and planned acts of high-severity violence targeting government, military or other armed groups taking direct part in the hostilities in a situation of armed conflict, and does not intentionally and explicitly target civilians with high-severity violence; AND/OR

    

*   Deprives communities of access to critical infrastructure or natural resources; AND/OR

    

*   Engages in a pattern of attacks intended to bring significant damage to infrastructure that is not linked to death, serious injury or serious harm to civilians.

    

 

**Violence Inducing Entities** are defined as follows:

 

A Violence Inducing Entity (General) is a non-state actor that:

 

*   Has as its stated goal or intended function to provide, through violence, an unsanctioned governmental enforcing function (such as, police, military, immigration) in place of, or in addition to, the government itself; or to disrupt through violence a governmental enforcing function;

    

*   Has engaged in a substantial step towards this stated goal on Meta’s platforms; and

    

*   Has engaged in multiple instances of threatening or inciting high-severity violence (online or offline);

    

 

A **Hate Banned Entity** is a non-state actor that:

 

*   Engages in repeated hateful conduct or rhetoric, but does not rise to the level of a Tier 1 entity because they have not engaged in or explicitly advocated for violence, or because they lack sufficient connections to previously designated organizations or figures.

    

 

For the following Network Moderation Rules, we require additional information and/or context to enforce:

 

*   In certain cases, we will allow content that may otherwise violate the Network Moderation Rules when it is determined that the content is satirical. Content will only be allowed if the violating elements of the content are being satirized or attributed to something or someone else in order to mock or criticize them.
