올해 메타가 적대적인 온라인 활동으로 사용자들에게 은밀한 영향력을 미치려고 한 집단과 개인의 시도에 따라, 이를 막기 위한 개입을 진행했다. 다만 올해 전세계적으로 많은 선거가 있었던 것에 비해, 유권자를 속이는데 사용된 AI는 비교적 미미한 것으로 파악됐다. 메타가 개입한 은밀한 영향력 작전의 1위 소스는 러시아였으며 이란과 중국이 뒤를 이었다.

Regulation in the UK is among the most stringent of the 27 countries in the EU. For tech companies, in particular, sanctions from UK regulators can be a huge overshadowing factor. This fall, the UK's Online Safety Bill will be passed. Aimed at protecting children, the bill sets out strict rules for policing social media content, and companies that fail to comply could face stiff fines and jail time. This is expected to hit tech companies based on messaging apps like WhatsApp and Signal hard.

왓츠앱·EU, '사용자 메시지' 정리 동의

It’s taken rather longer than a month for Meta-owned WhatsApp to commit to address complaints swirling around how it imposes terms of service on users but the European Commission has just announced that the messaging platform has agreed to improve how it communicates to users and presents future ToS updates. Early in 2021, WhatsApp triggered a major user backlash after it pushed out an aggressive and confusingly worded update to its ToS that required users to accept the update in order to continue using the platform without making it clear what exactly was changing. The episode caused widespread confusion and drove some users to ditch the platform altogether — with rivals like Signal and Telegram reporting a surge in adoption.
