Ms Frances Haugen:

The oversight board is a wonderful illustration of how Facebook tries to focus our discourse and examination of the problems that Facebook introduces. If we look at the actual mission of the oversight board, it is currently not responsible for seeing how these algorithms perform or ensuring that Facebook releases adequate and accurate data. That is not its charge. Its charge is very specific around censorship. It asks, "Are we taking down the right content?" or "Are we taking down too much content?". It wants us to focus on a censorship debate and not on a systems debate. It wants that so much that the company spent $100 million to establish this board that can only talk about censorship. There are very well-intentioned, smart and gifted people on the oversight board but they have been limited in what they are allowed to engage with. It makes them not be able to live up to their job of keeping us safe.
