A. · Response
Respondent not recorded
QuestionSchakowsky asks how Facebook will create recourse channels to prevent systematic over-flagging of benign minority-community content (citing the Sikh community specifically) as hate speech.
ResponseFacebook acknowledges it "sometimes incorrectly" flags benign minority-community content as hate speech, and points to its general appeals process ("Request Review"/"Disagree with Decision") rather than any Sikh-community-specific fix.
