巴西选举法院裁定 Meta 须平等待遇两名总统候选人 决选10月25日举行
巴西利亚——巴西总统选举决选将于10月25日举行。决选前，巴西选举法院法官 Marco Aurelio Bellizze 裁定，Meta 须立即采取措施，确保对两名候选人一视同仁。
据巴西《圣保罗页报》报道，Meta 内部信息显示，现任总统卢拉的 Instagram 账号在选举期间曾受到限制的负面影响，平台还推荐了其挑战者、参议员 Flávio Bolsonaro 的主页及其 WhatsApp 频道。卢拉此前向选举法院投诉，指 Meta 使用带偏见的算法与基于超级智能的限制，偏袒 Flávio Bolsonaro。
Bellizze 裁定，Meta 不得以下调政治内容传播、限制搜索或删除帖文等方式在两名候选人之间造成不平衡，并要求该公司确保其超级智能工具对两边竞选团队适用同一标准。Meta 向路透社表示，报道提及的技术问题此前已经公开，内部讨论仅涉及这些问题的严重程度，任何称其偏袒一方的说法都不属实。Flávio Bolsonaro 在本月早些时候的首轮投票中表现超出预期，将与卢拉在决选中对决。

Brazil Electoral Court Orders Meta to Ensure Equal Treatment of Lula and Bolsonaro Ahead of Runoff
BRASILIA — Brazil's presidential runoff will be held on October 25. Ahead of the vote, electoral court Justice Marco Aurelio Bellizze ordered Meta to take immediate steps to ensure equal treatment of both candidates.
Brazilian newspaper Folha de S.Paulo reported that internal Meta messages showed President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva's Instagram accounts were negatively affected by restrictions during the election period, and that the platform also recommended the profile of his challenger, Senator Flavio Bolsonaro, along with his WhatsApp channel. Lula had filed a complaint accusing Meta, which owns Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp, of using biased algorithms and SI-based restrictions that favoured Bolsonaro.
Bellizze ruled that Meta must not reduce the spread of political content, limit searches or remove posts in ways that create an imbalance between the two candidates, and ordered the company to make sure its SI tools apply the same standards to both campaigns. Meta told Reuters that the technical problems mentioned in the report had already been made public, and that the internal discussions referred only to the seriousness of those issues rather than any political bias. The company said any claim that it favoured one side was untrue. Flavio Bolsonaro performed better than expected in the first round of voting earlier this month and will face Lula in the runoff.
