Meta contractor dismissed threats to moderators by Ethiopia rebels: court documents

Quick Summary:

NAIROBI : A contractor hired by Facebook's parent company Meta dismissed threats to content moderators by Ethiopian rebels angered by their work, according to new evidence filed in a case challenging the dismissal of dozens of moderators in Kenya.

"They told us to stop removing their content from Facebook or else we would face dire consequences," he said, adding that his supervisor dismissed his concerns.

Out-of-court settlement talks between the moderators and Meta collapsed in October last year.
