and reim data
sity
[Musica]
Hi Thank You analyzing Facebook reclaim
algorithm That is the topic of the talk
and instead of taking picture During the
presentation You can Take only this
picture Because the slides are on PDF
downloadable is more
comfortable My name is Claudio vna is my
handle on Twitter But if you look for
the FB track hash
Mater
presentation The project is Facebook
tracking exposed there
isc.org Net is exposed and we applied
this Method to Facebook but Can Be
applied to every platform that
personaliz your perception of the
reality So you have a personalized
content You are led Facebook
the Google Search twitteren
YouTube Mey can be applied also In Other
platform at the moment we are focusing
On Facebook Now I'm pretty sure In This
kind of audience Many of You are not on
Facebook Are Just without because they
can permit them and that is good but
what we want to Show is that the
algorithm have an impact on How the
society
perce theal debate and perce what is
happening so also If you can consider
Yourself free from Facebook the society
Around You is crew so think about it has
been 2014 When Facebook Itself Show How
the algorithm are a Sort of tool of
Social Control in
this in Research by Facebook Itself They
took 600,000 user as experiment they
divided in Groups Half of them were
seeing their news their normal News Feed
so Friends and page their following
except the content with a negative
sentiment and the other Half Everything
except the content with positive
sentim They knew How Those People were
behaving Before The experiment began and
they checked that They were changing
their
behavior was not censoring the content
were not deleted Just was not showing up
so in Theory If you really Care About a
topic you can go on a specific Friends
or in a page and look what they publish
but in this
Years People and application are
competing for our Attention so be
Present in the newsfeed or Not Be
Present can be a Sort of
to promote
or
content and got interesting analysis R
by When when Ferguson was Starting to
make The Movement Black Life Matter
began She realized that in her in her
own Facebook newsfeed Nothing was
showing up about
it How Things pried ored by Facebook May
have some Political implication because
People Aware of the topic Can It is
important and Who is outside of the
Bubble cann Another more Creepy Stories
is from karano she had a group of
friends They were in touch via Facebook
and one of them once Get hospitalized he
wrote in the hospital to face surgery
never this post this person Died after
the surgery and they Find Out month
later They were expecting That the
Facebook algorithm would have make Those
Friends connected but not Happen now the
one of Zen And are aneco reference You
can watch your newsfeed Try To Be critic
and Judge it if or not But what need are
data also because
How
the of the not after one Year
later all the criticism to Facebook has
been Used During the 2016 Us campaign
and During
brexit the
decen
How can know what is meaningful
relationship for me The main Point that
Because you prof user on that user You
can to actually give them What Matter
for them and that is not
like tring exposed
Used
alm prior for you only you can have
algor under contr and a Phenomena the
one of algorithm accountability
and analysis of algorithm That is
growing Those are non complete List of
organization Open Source Project Academy
Groups that doing algor
accountability them directly funded by
the Current monopolist by the status by
the Gam How You can spot them Well I
don't know Yet but I have a way to
understand if Someone is doing a
Corporate friendly politics or Not if
the result of their reports of their own
publication of their
analysis acknowledge That the power is
in Facebook Google or in the monopolist
and they Ask for
more Third party review That's Still
keeping The power in the center of the
network If instead you asking that the
user the people at the Border of the
network will be more empowered That's
for me is Political activism for the
digital Age and is what we doing and we
have article like publ 10 Days ago in
The
Guardian in opinion Show How the debate
about algorithm is not Yet informed
enough revealed How It populist Us
Facebook to win Power So This already
trigger to me for three Reason the first
assuming That the only way you have to
win the election is Win on Facebook
because this
implicitly reinforce the idea that
Facebook is the place where to this is
not the second is that engagement seems
to imply Victory someh Because the two
person Luigi diio and Matteo Salvini are
the two Prim vice Prime Minister and
This may seem that this is an actual way
to win the election That's reinforce
Company like Cambridge analytica because
Behind the Scene they will be reinforced
by this analysis going to the next
politician and saying look
users Services
so is the reason why I don't like this
analysis but the Third One is I mean
engagement in this case is measured by
summing together likes share and
coms and engagement is the of different
variable
different
inv
aign to have Bunch of people content for
you or have large network of people that
spread your message create more content
and implicitly have more engagement In
This kind of multiplication If you have
Facebook in the midle that decide that
want to prefer specific content compared
to other That's AG and then
People specific Political message they
will engage more promote it more but How
You can Judge If you just use engagement
as an Absolute number that want to
Express all these variable of different
Nature also If you are using
the the Matrix That the System is giving
to you you are Playing in their own
Field So somehow you already Lost since
The
Beginning we can look them as separated
components producing content for
Facebook so Everybody
publish polial content article or their
own
Independent post the Facebook logic and
the people
normally People producing content are
kept accountable by electoral Authority
to understand How much investment is
Behind a certain party Facebook logics
is the one we want to keep accountable
and is the variable
Facebook we have to think That is aive
actor with an agenda and this agenda is
not The Human agenda we can we can
Imagine is not prefer republican or
democrats Or populist or
neoliberal a AG to keep business
raly this example you see some page
represented with different Colors that
Today They wrot different content Five
text two videos They goes in the black
box of Facebook and at 6 PM a user
connects and get a personalized Timeline
Inside of this Timeline some advertising
Get spread in the moment Facebook decide
the Timeline is giving a priority
EXP tring Andi
Us in
[Musica]
Society to do that evidence because
algorithm is shaping your perception
hiding or promoting making po More than
once Facebook is giv to you that Brows
exion That is the logo that Run in your
browser and collects what Facebook is
selecting for you and Still it's quite
hard Because you just Collect a Bunch of
data but then What do you do with this
data so because is a Black Box testing
we start to reduce the variable the
variable We control We Made some
accounts Quite hypothetical with Zero
Friends They were accessing in the same
amount of Time During The Italian
election campaign Just because was a Def
amount of time and because You can
follow page related to Political speech
We selected the same page 30 page for
all the users We Just played with the
likes So one user was liking the center
left the other the right Antonietta the
left the Colors are associ the
polial Challenge in it
Oliviero One and decided that that user
was not liking anything Just following
passively They Act like Bot controlled
by Us but they were not doing Any Kind
of engagement or doing any Activity
beside checking What Facebook was
selecting for them They were controlled
through an aut scroller so
Something Time per Day from in
7mc
perc
andid and is Run for
month and then we can start to do our
first comparison in the moment we have
controlled all the variable we can for
example check if
the content that Comp your
Timeline are of the Kind Is A
Kind foto or post or video and then you
can see that just a few likes of
difference Santiago the center left was
getting 60% of post and 40% of Photo
Michele that was making like to the far
was getting 53% of photo and 38% of post
and that is already a way to have a
grasp on How users that in Theory are
exposed to the same kind of
Andrea the is the
wasting The quality of information May
depend from the kind of media You are
exposed to We checked if this pattern
was recurring also During the single day
and That's all the Access Made During
the 9 of February from
the
can is Based on Less post so the
difference are are bigger but somehow Is
Always the same Is How
is looks like Facebook has actually
Behind the Scene set of components some
percentage some doses for ingredients to
Compose your information Diet That is
the metaphor We Tend To use in the
moment we have Found this matric So This
Way to compare data and to try to
understand the algorithm We applied the
same also to Our Own profile to
understand if we are more similar to
Andrea That is getting Out of text or to
Michele that lives with most
Pictures This is an example When we
analy ourself we only
see anonymized us in this case we have
shawarma i Cream is taking the majority
of post so text and Pictures Photo some
video post and and Photo the user the
one in the Bottom of the page pasta
sparagus chocolate is getting videos and
post and That's make you see that that
can be a way to
actually perceive in a concrete Way How
the algorithm is is treating people
differently Another matric is how
frequently the same post Get repeated
When you Access to Facebook after one
hour in our case or When you want to
Access Facebook May or may not show you
older
post here we made in this Graph you see
on the on the column on the left
observed means the number of Time a post
get
observed so Everything Has been
observed and then
amsed at lewice and mean for two Lines
post was Present And So far so far and
again you see that Andrea on the right
is the one that was getting much more
Fresh content so the likelihood that the
po Survive to refresh was Around 30%
inad was getting all theed repe then The
Other users other behavior more I don't
know probably
equilibrate something that is is
considered to be interesting for you
repeated and something else Just
Forgotten this was Taken between the 8
of February and the 14 of February and
this some weeks later Because the
algorithm Keep changing so is also
interesting The picture of this
Phenomena in specific Moment of time and
see How They were changing
and depends on the platform Logic spre
the content for ex We take the
publisher from Italy il giornale Il
fatto quotidiano la
Repubblica
are C il
giornale more La Repubblica because more
People because they have a different
Policy in sending Facebook their
publication I don't
know then we can assume that If we are
in a fair
World
Surf content percent
can if in the fter as binary Concept You
can assume That the user Who was liking
the green content the one on the right
Will only Get from jn not of the other
and so The
Other Fair of the Market the
bu
to
newspaper Present in all the with
amn wasting the likes the green Present
in Andre colum
inity Il Fatto
Quotidiano
in Another again the 19 and 26 of
February to be more Extreme la Republica
Is Present in Every Time line Who is
liking the green is taking Less compared
to another user and Who is liking Il
Fatto Quotidiano the yellow One is
actually taking it but for Britt Of The
Five Star movement seems That the
Concept the Filter Bubble is much more
Visible
interesting that When I Talk abouts with
Italians they know the the media and
they try to elaborate some justification
So one of the justification is Well
giornale is spamming is creating aot of
content They get penalized and Maybe a
possible
consideration busb
May hes is that la Republica Because the
most bipartisan media among them Get
treated better someh is
more in the center but means
That the algorithm is flattening the
society is reducing the diversity that
we can have in with other sources
Another hypothesis is that Republica
most like than the other
me in 2018 the potenti
biggest news media are Cristiano Ronaldo
Shakira and Vin Diesel because
Individual with More likes and That's
again is not Okay means That the System
of Facebook reinforce the Current status
the Current leading
Voice we don't want to Just make report
and analysis our goal is empowering the
masses curious
Because copernicus the Inventor of the
heliocentric Theory is represented as in
in conversation with God instead Galileo
Galileo Galileo Galilei the Inventor Of
The Tool that enable masses to verify
the heliocentric Theory is depicted in
front of the Roman institution Roman
inquisition Because The Church was
inis and How looks like the same Power
of the Roman Church
nowadays with Google taking down our
extension because tradem inf After some
month of the penitent and sinner we
finally Get our extension restored but
Something We to think about If we want
to Challenge This kind of
status the algorithm
Mon and use the
toy We
to Smart strategy otherwise We will be
always subject
to we want to advocate for an Open
approach to let other People understand
How the algorithm have Impa in life We
Us Ele
because
The Global
exped We Talking privacy before
Snowden in
Europe normally We Were seeing as
Paranoid and about algorithm influence
and manipulation again as Paranoid Until
You don't have Some kind of worldwide
referen
Stic just make a simple Story You Do The
analysis During a specific time you know
Which are the part in play
That's make a Project Self defined but
our goal is to enable other to
understand How the algorithm has an
impact in your life or your Group And
there is this simple Method You can use
to understand if This is for You If you
are following this Talk and you
understanding what I'm saying you know
enough to do this test If you know in
your life in your context some Groups
That is in conflict That's can be a
narrative can be a group of people that
you can help to analyze How the
algorithm is treating them because Quite
likely is not treating them Well They
are in a conflict probably a minority
and if the algorithm is reinforcing
status have to find
to in public and as Story of algorithm
abuse and then we as Group can help to
provide the methodology or suggestion
because our goal is provide Technology
to let other People understand and
assess algorithm we don't want to do
report Another very simple Method to do
this test When you inst extens you can
Open the Panel
and Part Of Group
Write
Random People the group of study knows
in this way you are tagging your
contribution
with Cod and Who belong to this group
can download and analy the data So you
can do it with a group of friends do it
in your class or Whatever in your
family the Point Three is about do not
Matter if running a test with a fake
user fake profile like Bots with an aut
scroller or with your Individual user in
all the case If you tag it to compare
them together That is a way to start to
understand How differently You are
perceiving the the
Stories Of course If you Saw sou Park
episode Season 21 explain a great Ide to
Cheng Facebook but we are not Cool we
are saying Delete Facebook Give your
profile to the
Science your
[Musica]
profile your profile is a Unique way to
observe the
network Unique In The sense that you
have selected Unique Source and in the
Graph probably There is not person like
you
you how and
isation understand How Facebook is
behaving but Of course if
managing data of volunteers we have to
have a responsible Use of Technology
otherwise we are not different from
Facebook and now you will get all the
list of Our ethical commitment to
explain what we do and what we do not
want to do the first Point is Facebook
Tracks FB Tracks is not a social media
intelligence tool we only observe what
appear in the News Feed not what appear
in the Individual page so If you have
facebook.com That's is observed If you
are going in
SL something else is not We respect
People Choice
Shed
theice in the S that People Who po
content publicly knows that someone else
can Take it and we are Part Of someone
else additionally gdpr demands that we
do something more so If we treating data
If we are collecting data published by
an
original to
original G
accb are data about them On our server
and Delete or Change them This is not
implemented But Something we have to
face Before The next campaign and we
consider the Timeline so the sequence Of
The public post collected as a
personally identifiable
information
collected that On Top Of The the post
saying the post has been recorded and
Link to Access your data or if the post
has not been
recorded That is the only client Side
check in The sense that Facebook HTML
Change Quite often therefore was
Impossible do the analysis on the
browser
extension we only verify the privacy
level in the browser extension then we
take the entire HTML We Send it to the
server and then is the pipeline
Start data We Are collecting The public
not if is shared for Friends if your
friends share Something Only For Friends
audience is not seen and this is also
the same for Custom audience the one
with the
Cog There is difference between our test
and other adopters like you because in
our test we are using fake profile so
They not Human right
And are following Public sour like media
polian and is is
Inas the
itan
minut
contr we know Which are
theure capability we want to give to the
user but Quite difficult implement a
meaningful ux That is one of the limit
we are facing luckily we Get the first
important Fund since December of this
Year That is one of Our goal the data
observed By Your profile are only yours
only you can have Access to it
and
agreg
we want to let user Custom their own
data retention Policy the Delete
Operation at the moment are made by by
Us if requested and in this moment You
are identified in the server because
browser extension generate a Public
private Key So we do tofu Trust on first
Use of The key and we To Collect the
data Public
Key change
Security Policy Better defined and we
have to define Things in January we are
Open to Any Kind of discussion isab
repository you can as adopter share
portion of your informative Experience
This is an example of what we want to
give Michele the far Right britta
movement Star Antonietta on the left
They Saw a event happening During the
the election campaign It was about
maerata R to sho migrant and we checking
How event Get seen by
them the diagram is the kind of
visualization can also permit in future
to you and your friend your partner your
colleague to
see analys
syst Only For keyw that are referring to
Wikipedia entry is a to
Avoid full Tex Search and having only
meaningful Elements the one that have a
page in Wikipedia extracted by the
article and
pces analysis of the aggregated data Run
in our
database but again we want to EMP others
so How we can find the compromise
Nobody Access to database BES Us and
Will kind of Protection that can ensure
accountability
But if someone develop a interesting
Research Question and this can Run on
the database we can make the data set
usable to
do research The
public Accept You are not exposing
Individual behavior This is not
something that Can Be verified formally
So we will have to
review case by case And there is an
example wolfy Christ Ask How many post
in average are sponsored on Facebook
because he was seeing that one every
Four post was Paid by someone so We Made
an
analysis to look the percentage of
sponsored post in Every Time line
collected month per month
more 15% 10% are the higher over 200000
collected then in February has been
changed
round rounded By You 12% is
the
percent the code to do that
ispt pretty simple Just query onb that
reduce And Take
The identifiable data to Comp
output but
Facebook to our transparency advertising
Yes WR a lot about it explaining that
They really care about it but Behind the
Scene you see that They are doing their
best apparently to Avoid that Third
Party like us understand What's going
on this Twitter thread explain How They
are making a Random amount of span and
div
classes
Element and splitting the word sponsored
in
mpid
ising
D recent Something Weed since One Year
but Now wor now
the the fake SP patrocinado like in
portugese because loed Is Present in
every
po the morning I look at the statistics
and see one of the parser that is not
Working this mean the HTML is changed
and have to update my parser and then I
will Start to do Coffee and update the
parser because we have the HTML
collected We Can recover with the with
the Lost
data but I feel this a Corner case for
software because Everything We Made is
under GPL the backend is in Afro GPL but
the parer pipeline now I don't feel
really comfortable Now that I spend New
Days to fix it again to make it Public
Because somehow I feel that Facebook is
like Jupiter the most massive and
ancient and biggest Planet in the Solar
System a gasus Giant and we are a fart
In The
Space with This kind
of
differing
robust Community That is big enough
to counteract to every Change that
Facebook does will be Great work in in
GPL That is what is meant for but in
this phase I feel A bit of
Conc And there is Another of eic concern
That is to
confrontation because algorithm May take
the Shape of form of oppression If You
Look at the debate we are having
currently we see that many Groups
sponsored
organization
researcher politician call for
artificial intelligence able to Fight
this information like if a tool can
decide What Is true and what is
false I mean conceptually
enough People that can explain Why This
is wrong and hopefully this Community is
the one that can be A bit of Resistance
compared to the
Lob We AS tring advocate forgor
divor because That's define your
priority in the other sense You have the
platform algorithm emony a platform
deciding What Matter for anybody else If
we have the algorithm diversity We will
have Fully empowered connected Citizen
is like the dream the distributed
network with also you owning the way to
Index data and be ful Independent in the
other sense You have imposed obscure not
accountable values something that is
decided to Matter for you and for
Society for Community but Nothing is so
simple because we that Phenomena Such as
polarization conspiracy Theory antivaxer
that They can be created Because of this
intermediated Communication In The sense
If There is some Entity in the Middle
That is responsible for What is doing
some of content verification May Happen
So we are pushing for
midle Ground but only un Society can
critically think to What is the Better
Choice for them
is our message to devel foras simple
stateless tool for algorithmic People
forat
Mach
Learning that you can you can you can
with There is an Opportunity to do
interesting experiment that can be made
in in many countries And are the Europe
election in May 2019 If you look here
There is a Small Action Plan that
EXP How
to
countri to sadly the Trend of these
Years is that politician want to be on
social media because That's make them
dis
intermediated so They can just They
believe to be intermediated because
There is an algorithm That is intermedia
in them but they believe that They can
Reach their audience implicitly make The
social media more powerful because can
decide What is to be seen by
and and also give to us more reason to
do this analysis we want to see How this
Political content is treated by Facebook
and a Special answer that We are going
to Release and is in Alpha stage is a
tool that expose via RSS the RSS feeds
all the content That match with a
specific semantic keyword so Imagine
that you Collect the data the data get
separated by your Timeline and Just
Public post semantic analysis of the
post You have a set of semantic keyword
and then you can look through RSS on
this dataset for example If you
subscribe to facebook. tring exposed
feeds facebook. XML you will get all the
po that match with Facebook
Key of
weer more on the Reader because That's
Just a way to be spammed by Strange
content for example language Selection
or other criteria but only because we
have a free software tool we are Open to
discuss Which are Those criteria and is
the Europe
Ele
make appro of
algoritm Self owning More viable and
experimented the nabat tag are there
because they can Read RSS so If you have
a nabat tag you can start to Read Random
Facebook
Things is an Ambition is an ambitious
Plan because we want to keep a database
in the collective Interest and make it
privacy preserving because we want to
advocate to small Groups and EXP
algorithm Are harmful For them We to
cover platform YouTube trosed is in a
Alp but Something is Moving we want to
communicate How algorithm are treating
you showing How our Technology Behind
the Scene is Working over your data so
We need really aot of
figure are Open
tocome A system to meth to onboarding
New volunteers There is small gr but
considering the Public Interest of
algorithm accountability if possible to
think to do fundraising we are Open As
long as This not compromise our ethical
commitment Most of the Technology is
written in not js and in JavaScript and
the analysis can also be easily made in
Python Scientist interested in this
dataset beside what we already publish
in in github Reach to us to understand
Which kind of interface you you May
want so If I understand the CCC normally
you make an Applause at the end but
Please don't make it Just to Me But also
to all the proud
[Applauso]
contributors
Thank you cludio guess lots
ofs excellent
Talk Don't
Ur micr
number
than
dis to have no in for ex the Browsing
history of my friends but in like

We iones OB

that context but an article of
Motherboard explain How other Apps are
listening to Microphone and That's
profile the user and the result of the
profil can also be Used by Facebook
so situation
underst mob Security
Facebook is apparently using data as
Third party profiling Services
integrating in

micr
Ando no not Yet the
[Musica]
Point
intern input
signation
situation our goal is not do the
replacement of Facebook but Just change
the culture in Theory Imagine that
Facebook Will Give only chronologically
machine readable content and then in
your client You have your algorithm that
decide what appear to you or What
Doesn't That's will be the best case
scenario because means that you are
using Facebook as a true neutral
platform That is only
intermedia data without applying any
kind of filtering
and then you Real That algorithm is
shitt Because you need to understand May
Phenomena anal and Put in in perspective
trends that are happening in your Region
or your context and may justify that you
want to use other sources to
evaluate the new Feed You are getting
and to Select What Matter for you or
Doesn't means distributing
responsibility among different entities
Us always individ
agenda own algorithm and may Custom them
share them
etc Microphone Please yeah Thank you for
the Talk
again has Facebook any ability
to
users
no the exion rning
and I don't know how a Web Application
like theb application served by
facebook.com can do some test if they
are doing some Active test to spot The
Presence of the extension is Something
we should be capable to
we
Expert extension Development can help Us
on figuring
out rwi On The dataset Side There is no
way to understand if a user Has copied
the data from
Timeline Another Question from the
internet Yes I guess Facebook algorithm
is changing constantly How
Res findings Out of
Quick I don't care I mean the Point is
not to Reverse engineer the algorithm we
are not aiming for that because
Impossible also to Guess the complexity
of the variable Behind What Matter is
showing that the algorithm exist has an
agenda and also If you believe that is
doing Something in your Interest it
cannot be because only you can know your
Interest so Facebook can Keep changing
but the problem remain that can decide
to change also tomorrow in Direction
that are not in your interest
Microphone
Please fake accounts Research any
isss Block
Facebook
Rec
Behind following the same page When you
using account with Zero friend Facebook
May spot the anally May eventually also
Treat you differently That's why if that
was Okay At The Beginning of the Year
after the publication speech We Made
about it This is not anymore a Method I
will feel comfortable to Suggest we can
experiment something else with friends
that are interacting As long as documen
the methodology sry for the is
takings
using card to created user That's
all you divided types of po by videos
photos and posts did you like analy them
visually too because we did some
Research to and we found out that it
depends on Which account creates Those
posts for example many posts created by
the German afd
of
phos
container More postings and Less phos
but when you really looked at the
Timeline you that it was more all the
other accounts but it Show up because it
wasing ability exra Met for
exoto can TT on
toped so Now We to
use much more analysis but in analysis
We Were only using the URL to understand
the kind of
content Over There
Microphone Hi Thank you for Very
interesting and important Research You
are doing uh I was
wondering if and if so what you see for
Social scienti in this type of Research
especially in
soci Scientist Well beside the fact that
I'm not so I can I never understand what
they can
do but for
example very for example The help We got
During our test was someone selecting
the Facebook
page Across the
spectrums
Key for
ex wom in Catalia was investigating
on harmful speech
andis speech and she was using aot of
profile of women to observe How This
kind of context surfacing so She knows
the keyw list
ex S
can sear Dev that Another researcher to
see following Random page How
Fast spech from politician Surface in
the narrative this mean that has to
Select some Politi to be Used as
reference to analy their publication
and check if What ising in random page
depends from them or Not mostly have to
provide tool
can Give soci
Scientist Dashboard some Analytics that
can let them to understand What's going
on on Those users Timeline or in People
Who are actively participating to the
project so Imagine that you can have a
Research group of 20 or 30 People you
will have your own Special URL let say
to them If you click optin you accepting
to go on the Research Made by
you investig on a and for the
next you can
Get findings
here number please so I'm a Facebook
User myself and I often see These Paid
advertisements from entities that I do
not have a clue about is your data
including advertis because Focus en
that We to be honest Collect Everything
That is Public so if the advertising
appear with a Public post shared with
the Icon of the world This evidence is

reason targeting You is outside of
ourain but theg you that can be
collected in this moment we are
collecting this post but we have an
Issue in finding the sponsor the post so
