>Between October 2020 and the end of June 2021, Facebook and Instagram users had submitted around 524,000 cases to the Board. [...] Facebook also submitted 35 cases.

>In total, the Board selected 21 cases to review and ultimately proceeded with 17 of these. By the end of June, the Board had decided 11 cases – overturning Facebook’s decision eight times and upholding it three times.

>On average it took 74 days to decide and implement these cases.

Wow.

If this is a paid position, I'd like to apply for the obviously-necessary oversight board oversight board. We'd spend no less than 700 days to decide on cases, to be extra thorough.

I wonder what happened to those four cases the board “selected” but didn’t “ultimately proceed“ with?
