Yes, it matters. People need to have a better understanding of how these processes work, and not just to think everything related to big-tech is solved by machine learning.
In fairness, I think most people realize that a significant number of problems are actually solved by blockchain instead.
Can you tell me what crime was committed here? As noted in the Vindicator's own article:
> While unhappy with Facebook’s action, the editor reminds readers that Facebook is a business corporation, not the government, and as such it is allowed to restrict use of its services as long as those restrictions do not violate any laws. Plus, The Vindicator is using Facebook for free, so the newspaper has little grounds for complaint other than the silliness of it.
> The problem The Vindicator faces is that it has become dependent, perhaps too dependent, on Facebook to communicate with local residents and to promote the newspaper. Some Vindicator stories posted on thevindicator.com attract thousands of page views, but usually only after links to them are shared on Facebook. Plus, many bits of information are shared by the newspaper through Facebook alone.
And review this announcement that they are building a tool to appeal decisions: https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/04/comprehensive-community...
What more do you want? Feel free to mention specifics instead of just downvoting me because I disagree with you.
A debate could be made over whether FB invests enough in its human censor system, perhaps, but I’m not getting into that here. BTW I didn’t and can’t downvote you — HN disallows authors from downvoting direct replies.
