IG误删 #blacklivesmatter帖子 官方:自动审核系统错判

受George Floyd一事影响,美国甚至全球都相当关注种族歧视问题,而各大社交平台也出现一些声援帖文。近日,Instagram就在其Twitter发推文指,其自动审核技术在识别帖子的时候,误删了一些与黑人平权相关的帖子。

Instagram在推文表示,有用户向其反映,在帖文中使用#blacklivesmatter标签后会收到系统信息,指为限制某些内容和行动以保护平台,其操作已被阻止。Instagram解释,出现此问题的原因是#blacklivesmatter标签的数量在短时间内大幅增加,甚至其从而自动审核系统错判。

1/ We’re aware that some people are incorrectly running into “action blocked” messages when using the hashtag#blacklivesmatter, or resharing related posts. We have technology that detects rapidly increasing activity on Instagram to help combat spam.

3/ We want to be clear that using#blacklivesmatteris supported and celebrated on Instagram, and we are moving quickly to ensure voices using this hashtag are heard.

Instagram没有透露有多少用户因而受到影响,但表示删除该些帖子并非其初衷,并指Instagram绝对支持并鼓励用户使用#blacklivesmatter,也已迅速采取行动,以确保用户可以表达声音。
