Facebook announces the members of its new oversight board. It's an impressive group! The key questions, to me at least, are how far the purview of the group eventually stretches and how much their decisions really matter. After all, whether content stays up or goes down, is a fairly small matter with Facebook. The bigger question is what the algorithm shows to a huge number of people and what it shows to very few.
