REPORT: Chinese Nationals Work on Facebook Algorithm That Suppressed Hunter Biden Stories

Facebook, which recently censored stories about Hunter Biden’s corrupt business deals with Chinese Communist Party members, reportedly has Chinese nationals working on the algorithms used to suppress the story.

According to Sohrab Ahmari of The New York Post, Facebook retains at least six Chinese nationals working on censorship:

“There are at least half a dozen “Chinese nationals who are working on censorship,” a former Facebook insider told me last week. “So at some point, they [Facebook bosses] thought, ‘Hey, we’re going to get them H-1B visas so they can do this work.’ The insider shared an internal directory of the team that does much of this work. It’s called Hate-Speech Engineering (George Orwell, call your office), and most of its members are based at Facebook’s offices in Seattle.”

The piece continues, describing the many Chinese Communist Party-tied individuals on the team:

“The Hate-Speech Engineering team’s staff includes a research scientist based at the Seattle office who earned his master’s degree in computer engineering from the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Beijing, according to his LinkedIn profile. Another member of the team, a software engineer for machine learning based in Seattle, earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in computer science from Jilin University in northeast China. Still another, an engineering manager, earned his bachelor’s in computer science at Nanjing University in eastern China. Another software engineer previously worked for the Communist-backed conglomerate Huawei, as well as the Beijing National Railway & Design Institute of Signal and Communication. I reached out to all six employees; two replied to confirm that they are Chinese nationals but refused to comment further; the rest didn’t reply.”
