As Facebook prepares to outsource tough content decisions to its new 'Supreme Court,' experts warn it still operates within a dictatorship and can't legislate a better government

," a provision in a nearly 25-year-old law that has come under fire from both ends of the political spectrum — albeit for very different reasons — the company is also trying to head off any legislation it might not like.

"The Board's decisions are only binding in a very narrow sense — that is, the individual piece of content in question," Evelyn Douek, a lecturer in online speech at Harvard Law School, told Business Insider in an email. "Whether Facebook applies the rationale decision more broadly depends on whether Facebook deems it 'technically and operationally feasible.'""First, I think the reputational hit would be considerable.

"Nobody wants to hear Facebook saying 'oh, this is hard' and whining, but having a bunch of relatively independent, respected people say, 'look, this is hard, there is no one right answer,' maybe will be a useful educational shift for all of us and how we think about platforms and content moderation," she said.

But Owono, who was born in Cameroon and grew up mostly in Russia and France, is optimistic the board could help Facebook focus on areas of the world it has largely neglected. That, according to David Morar, a visiting scholar at George Washington University's "Digital Trade and Data Governance Hub," is the board's biggest shortcoming.
