Chris Cox
QuestionIn his closing question, Peters asks whether Meta consistently measures new features' impact on societal harms including hate speech and terrorism before launch, then presses specifically on Cox's repeated 0.02%-hate-speech-prevalence statistic — asking for the actual total raw view count behind that percentage, not just the rate.
ResponseCox describes a pre-launch safety review process for new products, confirms the 0.02% hate-speech figure, but says he doesn't have the raw total-view-count numbers behind that percentage on hand and commits only to a written follow-up.
