Supervisory Board Target determined that the social networking company is revisiting its ban on nipples female.

In a statement, the board noted that this finding comes after a case was filed in 2021 and 2022 to ban two transgender activists.

no censorship

In both posts with headlines promoting transgender healthcare, the couple posed shirtless but with nipples covered, the report said. The posts were flagged by users despite not clearly violating community standards and were removed by the content moderation algorithm.

At that time, Target he ultimately decided that his removal was justified, a decision that has now been overruled by the board of directors.

The review board noted in a statement that the change happened in part because the notorious nipple rule is “based on a binary notion of gender and the distinction between male and female bodies” and as such “doesn’t provide clarity on how the rules apply” to intersex, non-binary and transgender people and “requires reviewers to make a quick subjective assessment of gender and gender, which is impractical when moderating content on a large scale.”

confusing measurements

The Board acknowledged that these are “vast and confusing” and “often complex and vaguely defined” measures, requiring outsiders and subjective assessments of content moderation.

“For example, in some cases, moderators must evaluate the extent and nature of visible scarring to determine if certain exceptions apply,” the statement said. “The lack of clarity inherent in this policy creates uncertainty for users and reviewers and makes it unenforceable in practice.”

In addition to ending deletions, the board advised the company to “define clear, rights-respecting and objective criteria” for its rules on nudity and sexuality, a directive that urges the company to seriously consider whether those rules are correct. serving users “in accordance with international human rights standards, without discrimination on the basis of sex or gender”.
