Writing the code of Facebook, the most popular social network in the world that made him rich and famous, probably Mark Zuckerberg has never thought that one day would cost him an investigation for incitement to hatred. And instead it happened. The Ceo and the framework for management of the social based in Menlo Park are being investigated in Germany. For the magistrates germans Zuck and his people are guilty of not having removed content criminal threats and disclaimers of the jewish genocide.

The news has beaten the weekly Der Spiegel, who has also provided details of the investigation. The investigation is in the hands of the prosecutor of Monaco of Bavaria, and involves – in addition to Zuckerberg – is also the chief operating officer of the social network the american, Sheryl Sandberg, and the "head-lobbysta" for Europe, Richard Allan. The fuse was lit by the complaint of a lawyer of Wuerzburg, by the name of Chan-jo Jun, accusing Facebook of having failed to remove content containing “incitement to murder, threats of violence, denial of the holocaust and other crimes” even though they had been duly reported. And there is to add that at the beginning of 2016 a complaint very similar had been received to the public Prosecutor of Hamburg, and had remained without consequences for lacking jurisdiction and investigations against German managers were archived.

The reaction to Facebook
A page dark for the social network that had just announced new extraordinary results in terms of numbers of users and connections. The reaction from the German survey is written in a press release a few lines: “do Not comment on the status of a possible investigation, but we can say that the allegations are without value and that there was no violation of the German law on the part of Facebook or its employees. There is no place for hate on Facebook. We work closely with our partners to combat hate speech and promote counter-speech”.
But may also in Italy
Meanwhile in Italy, always in these hours, Facebook is running the risk of an equally concrete investigation on the case of Tiziana, the 31-year-old committed suicide after the spread of the video hard regarding it. The civil Court in North Naples, has made an order partially rejected the claim of Facebook Ireland, giving instead a reason to the mother of Tiziana: “Facebook had to take the video of the girl”. A history of judicial only at the beginning.
