    Content moderation and advertising in social media platforms

    Get PDF
    We study the incentive of an ad-funded social media platform to curb the presence of unsafe content that entails reputational risk to advertisers. We identify conditions for the platform not to moderate unsafe content and demonstrate how the optimal moderation policy depends on the risk the advertisers face. The platform is likely to undermoderate unsafe content relative to the socially desirable level when both advertisers and users have congruent preferences for unsafe content and to overmoderate unsafe content when advertisers have conflicting preferences for unsafe content. Finally, to mitigate negative externalities generated by unsafe content, we study the implications of a policy that mandates binding content moderation to online platforms and how the introduction of taxes on social media activity and social media platform competition can distort the platform's moderation strategies

    No full text
    This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book examines accounting information is used both within and outside organisations, before describing the role occupied by information systems. Rapid advances in IT have led to the development of a suite of accounting-based IS, collectively known as AIS. Particular attention is paid to providing students and academics a balanced view of both the technical underpinnings and organisational consequences of AIS, with emphasis on the latter. The technological development of AIS is also discussed in relation to how the role of accountants has changed over time. The chapter describes the use of AIS and how systems development and methods play a key role to inform their design and development as well as the impact of systems development within the accounting profession and the growing demands for accountants with skills in data analytics.</p
