Afgelopen
mei werd e.e.a al bekend gemaakt, intussen zijn er meer
bijzonderheden openbaar gemaakt over deze samenwerking en beste
bezoeker dat is niet mis..... Zo zou de samenwerking leiden tot meer
objectiviteit en neutralitijd wat betreft het opsporen en uitschaklen
van 'fake accounts', die het gevaar in zich herbergen dat ze door
buitenlandse mogendheden zouden kunnen worden gebruikt....
ha! ha! ha! ha! ha!
Ofwel
een uiterst rechtse denktank van oorlogshitsers en lobbyisten van het
militair-industrieel complex, beoordeelt 'objectief en neutraal' over
accounts en sites, die haar eigen agenda dwars zouden kunnen zitten......
Nu
blijkt bovendien dat Facebook van de zwaar over een hondendrol
getilde zakkenwasser Zuckerberg, één van de grootste donors is van
The Atlantic Council........ Voorts wordt deze denktank gefinancierd
door de NAVO, het Pentagon (wat mij betreft is deze denktank zelfs een instrument van het Pentagon en daarmee van de NAVO), westerse regeringen (de EU in haar geheel >> NEXIT zo snel mogelijk!) en de dictatoriale
Golfstaten, dit nog naast bedrijven uit het militair-industrieel
complex, plus het fake news 'journalisten' clubje Bellingcat........
Lees
het volgende artikel van Tyler Durden, eerder gepubliceerd op Zero
Hedge en zie hoe het internet langzaam maar zeker zal worden
gezuiverd van websites die kritiek hebben op de huidige inhumane neoliberale status quo
die zo wordt gesteund door de reguliere (massa-) media die zogenaamd
onafhankelijk hun nieuws zouden brengen:
Facebook and NATO Unite to Censor News They Dislike

(ZHE) — This
is not at all comforting: during a week that witnessed Alex Jones’
social media accounts taken
down by Facebook,
Apple, Spotify and Google, and what appears to be a growing crackdown
against alternative media figures including several
prominent Libertarians,
notably the Ron Paul Institute director, and the Scott Horton
Show, who found their Twitter accounts suspended — we
learn that the
Atlantic Council is directly advising Facebook on identifying and
removing “foreign interference” on the popular platform.
While
the initiative was initially revealed last May through an
official Facebook media release, more details of the controversial
think tank’s role have been revealed.
Supposedly
the whole partnership is aimed at bringing more objectivity and
neutrality to the process of rooting out fake accounts that pose the
threat of being operated by nefarious foreign states.

And
yet as a new Reuters report
confirms, Facebook
is now itself a top
donor to the Atlantic Council,
alongside Western governments, Gulf autocratic regimes, NATO, various
branches of the US military, and a number of major defense
contractors and corporations.
What’s
more is that the
team of four total
individuals running the Atlantic Council’s Digital Forensic
Research Lab (DFR Lab) is headed by a former National
Security Council advisor for the last four years of the Obama
administration, Graham Brookie,
who is also its founder.
Apparently
the group’s work has already been instrumental in Facebook taking
action against over two dozen “suspicious pages” flagged
potential foreign actors such as Russia. According to Reuters:
Facebook is using the group to enhance its investigations of foreign interference. Last week, the company said it took down 32 suspicious pages and accounts that purported to be run by leftists and minority activists. While some U.S. officials said they were likely the work of Russian agents, Facebook said it did not know for sure.
This
is indeed the shocking key phrase included in the report:“Facebook
said it did not know for sure.” And
yet the accounts were removed anyway.
The
Facebook-Atlantic Council alliance reportedly springs from the social
media giant’s finding itself desperate for outside “neutral”
help after a swell of public criticism, mostly issuing from
congressional leaders and prominent media pundits, for
supposedly allowing Russian propaganda accounts to operate ahead of
the 2016 elections.
And
in perhaps the most chilling line of the entire
report, Reuters says, “But
the lab and Atlantic Council bring
geopolitical expertise and
allow Facebook to distance itself from sensitive
pronouncements.” This
is ostensibly to defuse any potential conflict of interest arising as
Facebook seems a bigger presence in emerging foreign markets.
Facebook’s
chief security officer Alex Stamos recently told
reporters,
“Companies like ours don’t have the necessary information to
evaluate the relationship between political motivations that we infer
about an adversary and the political goals of a nation-state.” He
explained further that Facebook would collect
suspicious digital evidence and submit it to “researchers and
authorities”.
Since
at least May when the relationship was first
announced,
the DFR Lab has been key to this process of verifying what
constitutes foreign interference or nefarious state propaganda.
Facebook donated an undisclosed amount to the lab in May that was enough, said Graham Brookie, who runs the lab, to vault the company to the top of the Atlantic Council’s donor list, alongside the British government.
Facebook employees said privately over the past several months that Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg wants to outsource many of the most sensitive political decisions, leaving fact-checking to media groups and geopolitics to think tanks.
Facebook
has defended the process as part of ensuring that it remains
politically neutral, yet clearly the Atlantic Council itself is
hardly neutral, as a quick perusal of its
top donors indicates.
Among
the DFR Labs partners include UK-based Bellingcat, which has in the
past claimed “proof” that Assad gassed civilians based on
analyzing YouTube videos and Google Earth. And top donors include
various branches of the US military, Gulf states like the UAE, and
notably, NATO.
The Atlantic Council has frequently called for things like increased military engagement in Syria, militarily confronting the “Russian threat” in Eastern Europe, and now is advocating for Ukraine and Georgia to be allowed entry into NATO while calling for general territorial expansion of the Western military alliance.
Further it
has advocated on
behalf of
one of its previous funders, Turkish dictator Recep Tayyip
Erdoğan and
gave a “Distinguished International Leadership” award to
George W. Bush, to name but a few actions of the think tank that has
been given authorization to flag citizens’ Facebook pages for
possible foreign influence and propaganda.
Quite
disturbingly, this
is the outside “geopolitical expertise” that
Mark Zuckerberg’s been seeking.
