Facebook critics on Wednesday called on the world’s largest social network to release a human rights impact assessment it commissioned in 2020 to investigate hate speech on its platforms in India.

The social media company, which is now called Meta, faces increasing scrutiny over its handling of abuses on its services, particularly after whistle-blower Frances Haugen leaked internal documents showing its struggles monitoring problematic content in countries where it was most likely to cause harm.

Gare Smith, partner and chair of global business and human rights practice at the US law firm Foley Hoag, which Facebook commissioned to carry out the assessment, said: “Such projects are complex, particularly in a country as diverse and large as India.” A Meta spokesperson did not address Reuters questions about these allegations or the timeline of the review.
