A number of Facebook "content moderators" cannot pursue legal actions in Ireland over their claims they suffered serious psychological injuries from being exposed to graphic and violent content, the High Court has ruled. The cases, which related to people who worked under contracts with German and Spanish outsourcing firms, were brought in the Irish High Court because Facebook operator Meta, which is also a defendant in the actions, has its European headquarters in Dublin. One of the cases was brought by a man who worked for German company CCC Essen Digital Gmbh between 2018 and 2019 in Essen under a contract of employment to which Meta was not a party but merely outsourced the work to CCC. A second case was brought by another man who also worked for CCC Essen while a third was brought by a woman working for CCC Barcelona Digital Services SLU in Spain. It is alleged in the personal injury proceedings that Meta engaged the CCC firms for the purposes of recruiting and hiring content moderators. While they were employed by the CCC firms,  » Read More

By Reuters (CNN) — Facebook parent Meta Platforms on Tuesday launched a separate app for its Meta AI assistant, similar to those offered by Microsoft-backed OpenAI and Alphabet’s Google.

LONDON  Facebook posts believed to contain plans for a "massacre" are examining by counter-terrorism police who are investigating Saturday's attack in Leeds, northern England, involving crossbow and firearm, according to media reports. Three people, including two women aged 19 and 31, were injured on April 26 in a "serious incident" in Otley Road, Leeds, involving a man seen with weapons, the Counter-Terrorism Police said in a statement on Sunday. The police said the third injured person, a 38-year-old man, was arrested and taken to a hospital due to a self-inflicted injury. "We can confirm this man is the key suspect, and he remains in hospital in a critical condition," it added. Meanwhile, officers recovered a crossbow and a firearm from the scene. Head of Counter Terrorism Policing North East, Detective Chief Superintendent James Dunkerley, said the investigation continues but they believe this was an isolated incident and they are not currently seeking anyone else in connection with the incident. The Guardian reported on Sunday that the police are also examining several Facebook posts – including one that appeared to include plans for a "mass-murder" attack – to determine if they are linked to the attacker or the incident.  » Read More
