Meta's Content Policy Changes

Meta has initiated significant changes to its content moderation policies, particularly concerning LGBTQ+ issues, which has led to widespread employee unrest within the company. The alterations allow for increased permissibility of harmful speech surrounding gender identity and sexual orientation, sparking protests among employees who feel that these changes jeopardize the safety of marginalized groups. Sources from within Meta indicated that this decision was directed by a small group of top executives, illustrating a departure from the comprehensive consultation processes typically employed for policy-making. This has resulted in chaos among staff, with some openly expressing their intent to resign in response to the new direction of the company's policies.
