Notes on the following three documents, all with the term BEEF in their title

Internal Instagram and Facebook Documents
I sent this to express my concern about what we had been learning as well as to
make suggestions for steps the company could take to respond on behalf of
users. Before I sent it, I vetted it carefully with multiple people inside the
company, including some who were quite senior. In other words, I followed the
normal procedure for flagging issues to executive leadership in a technology
company, consistent with communications I participated in during my earlier stint
at Facebook, 2009-2015.
Regarding the statistics in the email to Zuckerberg for bullying,
experienced negative comparisons, and sexual harassment: these represent the
unadjusted figures (see note above), which had been given to me at the time by
company researchers. The adjusted figures for these categories, which I
obtained later, are all in the next document, the email I sent to Adam Mosseri.

Internal Instagram and Facebook Documents
This folder has presentations that were made available to the public by Facebook
between 2011 and 2015. The data was the result of close collaboration with Marc
Brackett and Robin Stern from the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence. Of
special note is slide 3, titled ‘Why are we here’ in ‘CRD2_Yale
Team_Compassion Day 2 Presentation_FINAL copy.pptx’.
For background, TRIPS was a pre-existing survey in which users told Facebook
about their bad experiences. The historical numbers are within range of the
BEEF findings.

Subject: Gap in our understanding of harm and bad experiences
Date: October 5, 2021 at 9:37:59 PM PDT
To: Mark Zuckerberg
Cc: Sheryl Sandberg , Chris Cox , Adam Mosseri
, Mark Zuckerberg
Dear Mark,
I saw the note you shared today after the testimony, and I wanted to bring to your attention what
I believe is a critical gap in how we as a company approach harm, and how the people we serve
experience it. I've raised this to Chris, Sheryl, and Adam in the last couple of weeks.
I want to start by saying that my personal experience, and what I believe, is that you and m-team
care deeply about everyone we serve, and my goal in sending this is to be of service to that. It's
been 2 years since I've been back part-time.
51% of Instagram users say 'yes' to having had a bad or harmful experience in the last 7 days.
Out of those 1% of report and of those 2% have the content taken down (i.e. 0.02%). The
numbers are probably similar on Facebook.
Two weeks ago my daughter , 16, and an experimenting creator on Instagram, made a
post about cars, and someone commented 'Get back to the kitchen.' It was deeply upsetting to
her. At the same time the comment is far from being policy violating, and our tools of blocking or
deleting mean that this person will go to other profiles and continue to spread misogyny. I don't
think policy/reporting or having more content review are the solutions.
There is detailed data about what people experience in TRIPS, a statistically significant survey.
We ran a more detailed survey, I've attached the full age breakdown below, but here are some
key numbers (these questions are in the last 7 days):
21.8% of 13-15 year olds said they were the target of bullying.
39.4% of 13-15 year olds said they experienced negative comparison.
24.4% of 13-15 year old responded said they received unwanted advances.
Why does someone think it is ok to post 'get back to the kitchen' or harass someone? I believe it is
because it doesn't violate policy, and other than deleting or blocking, there is no feature that helps
people know that kind of behavior is not ok. Another example, is unsolicited penis pictures.
has received those from boys too since the age of 14, and her tool is to block them. I
asked her why boys keep doing that? She said if the only thing that happens is they get blocked,
why wouldn't they?
Why the gap between Prevalence and TRIPS? Today we don't don't know what % of content
people experience as misinformation, harassment, or racism is policy violating. We have done
great work in driving down prevalence, and there will always be more to do, but what if policy
based solutions only cover a single digit percentage of what is harming people?
1 of 2
Policy is necessary when the content is unambiguously inappropriate, yet it has many limitations.
It trails behavior, the interventions are heavy and risk over-enforcement and getting the border line
right is extraordinarily difficult. Policy enforcement is analogous to the police, it is necessary to
prevent crime, but it is not what makes a space feel safe.
What makes a workplace, or a school, or a dinner table feel safe is social norms.
If someone goes around telling women to 'get back to the kitchen', and the only thing that happens
is their content is deleted or they get blocked, don't we run the risk of normalizing bad behavior?
How are people to learn to be members of a safe and supportive community without visible
interventions that help set the social norms for the environment? I believe social norms also
protect speech.
At dinner tonight said: my car videos are getting 100,000 views, it's natural that I'm going
to get a lot of hate with that. Is it? Why is it acceptable for someone to harass someone on their
surface? The most powerful solution for the integrity and safety space is to affect the supply of bad
experiences via the actors creating them.
I might be wrong about my assessment, and welcome feedback about any effort or data that l'm
missing. I believe that it is important to get the following efforts well-funded and prioritized:
• What is the content that is causing bad experiences for our users? How intense is the
experience?
• What % of that content is policy violating? (i.e. how much of TRIPS is driven by content other
than what drives Prevalence?)
• What are visible product solutions that make the community better over time? e.g. actor
feedback, comment covers, pinned comments, etc.
• The person who has the negative experience should feel heard, you don't 'perceive' racism or
harassment, you experience it, and you are the source of truth for that. The feedback flow
should not be just about filing a report, but about understanding the experience the person is
having so we can give them the right solution.
• We should empower creators, communities, and Instagram, in setting the social norms for the
spaces the are a part of.
• Where appropriate we should give feedback to actors, in the belief that they are acting with
good intention and might have caused unintentional harm. There can be a range of
interventions that start with 'nudges' that assume positive intention. This will allow us to
separate the people who would behave differently given feedback, from the ones who are
intentionally causing harm. We can then approach people who are intentionally malicious with
the integrity tools.
If you would like I can give more details or specifics on this. I am appealing to you because I
believe that working this way will require a culture shift. I know that everyone in m-team team
deeply cares about the people we serve, and the communities we are trying to nurture, and I
believe that this work will be of service to that.

TRIPS (TrackingReachof lnteg
Survey)
What is TRIPS?
The "Tracking Reach of Integrity Problems Survey" (TRIPS), also known as the Percept
measures global perceptions of Integrity problems on Facebook, lnstagram, and Me
integrity problems relevant to Central Integrity, FB App Integrity, lnstagram Well-Being,
Our mission: Enable the systematic, rigorous, and reliable measu.rementof people's
FACEBOOK,tracking integrity problems across the family of apps.
TRIPS was founded as a way to listen to users' voices in real time in the immediate
platforms. The data we collect capture the extent to which group-level prefe~
country or group, and differ from our policy classifications of harm. We aim to •
proactively detect sudden changes in perceived reach or intensity, guiding
harm on a global scale.

Relationships Matter!
Why are we here?
Bullying is a real problem!
• Definition: An intentional act of aggression, based on an imbalance
of power, that is meant to harm a victim either psychologically or
physically. Bullying usually occurs repeatedly and over time, but
sometimes can be identified in a single event.
• Over 50% of kids say someone has said mean or hurtful things to
them online.
• Over 50% of kids admit saying something mean to another person
online.
• Compassion Day 1
▪ Taking Facebook design into consideration (e.g., writing, editing, and making sure we
got everything we possibly could into the limited space).
Focus Groups and Interviews
▪ Participants
▪ Public and private school students (N = 50; 13 to 15 year olds; 8 groups total) from diverse
backgrounds (east and west coast)
• E.g., report – meant ‘authority’ or ‘trouble’ or ‘evaluated,’ ‘get help’ suggested ‘technical
problem’
• If questions were meaningful and kids believed they would be helpful, they would be more
motivated to complete the flow
• Kids said not everything needed to be reported b/c they would just tell their friend…
Focus Groups and Interviews
▪ Takeaways from interviews with parents
▪ Parents were mixed on whether they should be the trusted adults

Relationships Matter!
Emotionally Intelligent
Bullying Prevention
The 3rd Compassion Research Day
▪ It’s permanent
Prevalence of Cyberbullying
• 50% of middle and high school students say they have been cyberbullied
and 33% report bullying someone online (Mishna et al. 2010).
Cognitive Changes
§ Improvements in thought complexity makes kids more vulnerable to what others think.
“Imaginary audience” (thinking that everyone sees them) makes them especially self-conscious
and vulnerable to embarrassment.
• Kids wanted Facebook to do something about it, but were not sure what that was;
wanted a ‘conversation’
• If questions were meaningful, specific, and helpful, they would be more motivated
to complete the flow
• Kids did not believe everything needs to be reported b/c they would just tell (call,
text) someone they trusted
Infusing emotional intelligence
▪ Takeaways from interviews with parents
▪ Parents were mixed on whether they should be the ‘trusted’ adults
▪ E.g., Threatened – may not want to tell trusted adult, but they need help
▪ We needed to provide children, parents, and educators with more direct help
Infusing emotional intelligence
▪ ‘What happened?’ to ‘how are you feeling?’ to ‘what can you do?
• Empower youth to take a positive, safe action both on- and off-line
▪ Provide simple, effective guidance for less versus more threatening posts
▪ Reporter Information
▪ N = 402,269 13-14 year olds (distinct users)
▪ Girls = 68%: Boys = 32%
▪ All reports are between 9/1/12 to 12/31/12
▪ Median # friends = 295; Girls = 332; Boys = 229
▪ 1.5 reports, on average
▪ Reporters were assigned randomly to old versus new flows
▪ Based on approximately 4,000 follow up surveys:
▪ Reports completed mostly by kids (85%), although some were
completed by kids with their parents and parents alone (15%).

• Providing kids with a more emotionally intelligent report flow helps to have
more positive interactions
▪ Kids are more likely to “stay in the relationship” and make constructive decisions like sending
positive messages as opposed to blocking
▪ In essence, we have eliminated ‘blocking’ – likely an ineffective coping strategy
Limitations and Next steps
• These data only represent kids who reported; many kids do not know about the
reporting system so there is a need to get the word out.
• We need to try new methods for follow-up survey data – satisfaction, resolution?
Follow up on content creator, trusted friends/adults
• Qualitative Analyses
▪ Gender differences
▪ Mapping posts onto categories
▪ Examine posts preceding and following report

Sometimes it’s clear why teens label posts as bullying

- Reported by 14 year old girl going to knock you out
tomorrow.
- Reported by 14 year old boy
• Parental involvement:
• 38% of younger teens vs. 23% of older teens’ have parent
involvement
Summary of findings
• Like face-to-face bullying, online bullying results in a range of emotional
experiences for both boys and girls (embarrassment/anger are dominant)
• Age differences in the ‘content’ of online bullying are consistent with face-to-face
bullying (e.g., homophobic bullying)
• When given effective “tools” teens appear to send messages – and when they
learn have done something ‘wrong,’ they tend to respond
• These results helped to inform us about other tools kids and adults needed
Part 2: The Bullying Prevention Hub:
Methodology Learnings
• Focus groups with teens, • Awareness of bullying, but low
educators, parents comprehension of what to do
• In depth summit with nonprofits • All stakeholders want guidance
• Provide the right advice to the right user at the right time.
