Facebook ranks worst for online harassment, according to a global activist survey

Here is a 174-word summary of the news article: A global activist survey by nonprofit organization Global Witness found that more than 90% of land and environmental defenders have experienced online harassment, with Facebook being the most commonly cited platform. The survey of over 200 activists revealed that Meta-owned platforms like Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram were "the most toxic," with 62% of participants reporting abuse on Facebook. Activists fear that online attacks could fuel real-world risks, with around 75% believing the online abuse they faced corresponded to offline harm. Women and women of color were particularly targeted, with nearly a quarter of respondents saying they were attacked on the basis of their sex. Global Witness is calling on social media companies to dedicate more resources to content moderation and review their algorithms, which activists say contribute to the spread of harassment and misinformation. Despite Meta's efforts to address the issue, activists like Fatrisia Ain in Indonesia continue to face dangerous online attacks that put their real-world safety at risk.
