👉 The Cancel Project, initiated by former Meta employees in 2021, aimed to address the company's handling of content moderation and community safety issues, particularly following high-profile incidents like the Facebook-Cambridge Analytica scandal and the content moderation practices on Instagram. The project sought to establish an independent oversight body, the Meta Community Oversight Board (COB), to review and make recommendations on content moderation decisions, aiming for greater transparency and accountability. However, the project faced criticism and legal challenges, leading to its eventual suspension in 2023.
