Civil Rights Activists Launch Independent Facebook Oversight Board

Warning of an urgent threat to democracy, civil rights activists say they've formed an independent Facebook oversight board to scrutinize the role the social media giant is playing in the 2020 election. The “Real Facebook Oversight Board” is an initiative from Citizens, a new nonprofit created to hold big tech accountable. It has start-up funding from Luminate which is backed by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar's foundation The Omidyar Group.
