About Executive summary Managing risks Issues Stakeholders Transparency and remedy Annex The table below lays out our inherent salient human rights risks3 as defined in our 2022 Comprehensive Human Rights Salient Risk Assessment (CSRA), which we disclosed in our 2022 Human Rights Report. This table provides illustrative examples of how we addressed the potential risks in 2025. Later in this report, we take a deeper dive into some of these examples and how we managed potential risks in relation to artificial intelligence (AI), elections and conflicts. 1. Freedom of opinion and expression The right to freedom of opinion and expression includes the right to seek, receive and share information and ideas of all kinds. It is a foundational right, essential for the protection of human dignity, individual autonomy and democracy. Freedom of expression is a core part of our mission, consistent with our value of giving everyone a voice. Examples of potential inherent salient human rights risks identified in CSRA Meta’s content moderation policies and enforcement may limit freedom of expression. Examples of how Meta addressed the potential risks in 2025 In January 2025, we updated our Hateful Conduct Policy to allow for more discussion on some topics that are part of mainstream discourse, including immigration and gender. We focused our automated systems on tackling illegal and high-severity violations, like terrorism, child sexual exploitation, drugs, fraud and scams, while relying on user reports before taking action for less severe policy violations. We also tuned our systems to generally require a much higher degree of confidence before a piece of content is taken down. Later in 2025, we reported on our enforcement precision progress in our Community Standards Enforcement Report, as part of our Integrity Reports. We ended changes made in 2021 to reduce the amount of civic content people see and began recommending more political content based on personalized signals, e.g., liking a piece of content. 3 For the distinction between “inherent” and “residual” risk, see Meta’s 2024 Human Rights Report, page 11. 2025 Meta Human Rights Report 10
