and how do you do it? user reports? and how do you verify those user reports?
At the end of the day you need an automated system for scale that probably wont be better than what's in place already.
- dmurray 3y agoA regulator employs a handful of staff who estimate the number of offences and hands out the fines. If Google disagrees, they can have their day in court instead, where a judge rules on a representative selection of the alleged offences. The regulator gives everyone a break on the first, say, $100 million of fines a year, to recognise that some things will fall through the cracks. The regulator is publicly funded, and the fines also go back to the public purse. The regulator employs some mix of low-level data analysts who click links all day, technologists who build automated review systems, and bureaucrats who update policy documents and talk to politicians and companies. A revolving-door system develops between the regulator and the content moderation industry. The regulator is a generation or two behind tech giants in the sophistication of its systems, but that doesn't matter - it only needs to catch the most egregious offenders.
