Facebook Hate Speech Keyword Algorithm?

(1/9) > >>

Mechatrommer:
i got few hit from haters for posting very simple keywords and facebook decided it is a hate speech.. one of the post is only like "saudi wahabi, indon aswaja" and it was only like a sarcastic post. i sensed that facebook is using some set of keywords to make the decision such as "indon" is considered a harmful or derogatory word... regardless of what the whole post meaning, even if it was not mean as a harmful or hate speech, if someone complain about it, the stupid algorithm will kick in. making an appeal give no success, facebook hasnt reply in months. by simply include that word in your post you are eligible for a ban or suspension. so question is, how do i know what are those keywords so i can avoid including in my post? and how to register a keyword because some keyword in our community's opinion is a hate and derogatory word/speech but not yet registered? people will use that keyword to mock us. thanks.

edit: googling reveal some flaw in the algorithm such as

1. What the hell does this have to to with electronics? This isn’t a general forum…
2. The way to not run into hate speech filters is easy: don’t use it, whether in jest or not. If you even have to think about whether a word might be considered hate speech, it’s probably something you’re better off not posting at all. Not because of the rules, but because it makes you look like an asshole.

Mecha,
Just stop using FB. FB is not about communication amongst 'friends' it's about advertising and you are the product. Place a dollar value on your posts and if FB doesn't pay you that amount per post, divert your energy elsewhere.

JMO.

why you hate so much? ;D sorry if wrong thread but people here talk about cat and dog thats nothing with electronics.. if there is more appropriate thread please move this there. dont leave a human's job to machine. the idea is avoiding those keywords earlier before you are considered as an asshole. i didnt know by just mentioning the word "indon" or "arab" will make you an asshole. what if those filter registers "asshole" as a hate word, then you will be considered as an asshole right? this can extend to any ethnic in this world, we know originally the word bl*ck is a tabbo word. so by just mentioning a country or ethnic name or a color, even if it means good, can consider you as an asshole.

we share ideas, informational videos, pictures there... just as here, dave get the benefit of advertisement and money in youtube, we get nothing in term of money but informations. yes i know FB use us to get money, but we use it to our own benefit.. mutual symbiosis... they get money, we get informations. but this stupid algorithm is biased imho. it can turn a terrorists to run free inside by knowing how to avoid certain keywords.. read about india senarios in links in OP above, oppps did i just mentioned a country's name? i'm a terrorist! |O

How about the h-word you have used? Aren't you aware that it was invented by self-proclaimed elites to scare the masses of eternal punishment for revolting or slacking off and not working hard enough for their masters? Now, I know that you are progressive and not actually suggesting that the h-thing really exists or intending to give the whole concept undeserved credence by being mentioned outside of [sarcasm] tags on a fine scientific forum like ours, but there are still people around who promote this idea seriously so could be please stop giving them the attention they want?

*(hopefully, one day this will become a hate word too).
