Also on 23 October 2013, the IGO looked at the Applicant’s
personal Facebook account, and noted that the above-referenced picture had been
posted on the Applicant’s “wall” on Facebook. (...) Her explanation that her Facebook account had been hacked was
not considered by the IGO; indeed, she denies having posted the
photograph of her with the Syrian President on her Facebook account
and having commented thereon;
c. (...) The investigation by the IGO was conducted in a fair and transparent
manner, and there are no grounds to support the Applicant’s assertion that
the use of her publicly available Facebook page for purposes of the
investigation constituted a violation of her right to privacy, since access to
her Facebook page was possible as no privacy settings were activated; even
assuming that her assertion that her Facebook account had been hacked was
true, this would not change the outcome of her case;

On September
23, 2019, the businessman Nguyen Duc Quoc Vuong was arrested for preparing and
distributing information and documents by Facebook criticizing the government policy. He
previously has been incarcerated in June 2018 for his opposition on Facebook against laws
on cybersecurity and on special economic zones.
Every month, two or three Facebook users were arrested in 2020 for “abusing democratic
freedoms” in social media. (...) Nguyen Chi Vung was handed a six-year prison
term on charges to disseminating anti-state criticism on Facebook.
Facebook has been very much criticized for bowing to Viet Nam’s censorship to remove
posts when the website was often not usable by its 65 million users in the country after being
taken offline by the authorities.

WRITTEN SUBMISSION BY THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND NORTHERN IRELAND: EQUALITY AND HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION (EHRC) - NOTE BY THE SECRETARIAT
Global Witness “created two
job ads with the intention of using different forms of discriminatory targeting: one ad was
targeted to exclude women, the other to exclude people over the age of 55.”22 While Facebook
required them to comply with the platform’s non-discrimination policy through a tick-box,
both ads were approved by Facebook. Global Witness also created four ads for vacancies for
mechanics, nursery nurses, pilots and psychologists and set no parameters as to how
Facebook should target the adverts, leaving the platform’s algorithm as the sole driver for the
promotion. This experiment found that “almost all Facebook users shown adverts for
mechanics were men, while ads for nursery nurses were seen almost exclusively by
women.”23 Schona Jolly QC assessed the experience and stated: “Facebook’s system itself
may, and does appear to, lead to discriminatory outcomes”.24
