The review of Google recommends that, to better tackle disinformation related to elections, employees with language fluency should be more involved in enforcement actions instead of relying on translation.

WASHINGTON, DC, USA – Google on Friday, March 3, released an audit that examined how its policies and services impacted civil rights, and recommended the tech giant take steps to tackle misinformation and hate speech, following pressure by advocates to hold such a review.

The review released Friday recommended that Google, especially YouTube, review its hate speech and harassment policies to address issues such as intentional misgendering or deadnaming of individuals and “adapt to changing norms regarding protected groups.” Google should also consider developing additional metrics to track the speed and efficiency with which it removes ads on election-related misinformation, including imposing higher penalties and permanent suspension in the case of repeat offenders, the review added.
