Alice-Mary Higgins (Independent) | Oireachtas source
On the financial model in terms of targeting and its facilitation, do the witnesses believe a much higher standard of transparency and legal liability for harmful content should sit on platforms when they commercially benefit from an amplification in terms of advertisement?
In terms of algorithmic rewarding harmful content by facilitating advertisements on sites that have harmful clickbait content, particularly in terms of YouTube, which is represented here today through its owners, should there be a higher legal standard of accountability for yourselves in terms of that content?
