The Facebook Oversight Board is itself an Information Operation.

By merging mass surveillance, psychographic profiling, and micro-targeted advertising, Facebook has created a platform that not only enables profit-making from the theft and exploitation of personal data, but also allows your data to be used in ways that take your power away as a citizen and a voter, and gives that power to corporations and political campaigns. The consequences of this business model will continue to mount as long as accountability lags.
