October 11,2021 Facebook’s chief spokesman said the company is willing to subject itself to greater oversight to ensure its algorithms are performing as intended and aren’t harming users. Nick Clegg, Facebook’s vice president for global affairs, defended the company’s business practices against accusations from a whistleblower that it had put profits ahead of users‘ well-being. The algorithms „should be held to account, if necessary by regulation so that people can match what our systems say they’re supposed to do from what actually happens,“ Clegg said on CNN’s „State of the Union,“ one of three U.S. news-show appearances on Sunday.
