Pressed on whether Facebook will make business changes after whistleblower’s testimony, top executive Nick Clegg tells GStephanopoulos that the company realizes 'we need to be held to account.' 'We understand that with success comes responsibility.'

Clegg said Facebook is working on giving users more control, acknowledging that they want to see “more friends, less politics.”

Stephanopoulos also pressed Clegg on Facebook’s efforts to create a safer environment for kids and teens. “Yes, we are,” Clegg responded. “We're now going to not only provide those new parental tools but we're going to introduce new measures ... [if our] systems see that a teen is dwelling on content that may be correlated with something that's not good for their well-being, we would nudge them to look at other content.”

Clegg defended Facebook’s algorithm, which prioritizes the content users see first and was a target of Haugen’s testimony. Haugen claimed Facebook’s algorithm incites misinformation and violence.
