At the very least, FB must be held to account as editors. FB vigorously opposes this. However, with 1) a staff of 30K++ screeners, 2) who knows how many moderators, etc, 3) many layers of management decisions and policy on what is and is not allowed on the platform and the reasons why/why not, 4) extensive human & algorithmic promotion and demotion of content, they are absolutely actively editing their site. This is arguably even more extensive editing than from any print or media organization. The only reason FB wants to avoid the "editing" label is so they can edit as they please. I.e., they want to edit for 'engagement' and profit, not for social responsibility. This cannot remain out of control without consequences, which we are already seeing in society.
