澳大利亚教育倡导组织Teach Us Consent创始人Chanel Contos指控社交媒体公司通过算法向青少年男孩推送厌女和暴力性内容,导致年轻男性被激进化1。研究表明,16至18岁的男孩在注册社交媒体后不到25分钟内就会接触到此类内容1。
赞同这些理念的男性面临严重风险:他们饮酒过度的可能性是同龄人的两倍,有自杀想法的可能性是八倍,殴打伴侣的可能性是17倍1。2023年澳大利亚儿童虐待研究发现,16至18岁的澳大利亚男孩对儿童的性侵犯比成人更频繁1。一名16岁悉尼女孩的死亡与涉嫌性窒息行为有关1。
为了应对这一问题,澳大利亚政府正在探索允许用户退出算法推荐源的政策1。Contos建议改为仅显示粉丝帖子的默认时间线模式1。超过13,000名澳大利亚人已签署公开信要求总理终止算法推荐源1。Contos预计将于周三在国家记者俱乐部就此事发表讲话1。
Teenage boys are being exposed to misogynistic and violent sexual content through social media algorithms in less than 25 minutes after registering for accounts, according to Chanel Contos, founder of Australian education advocacy organization Teach Us Consent 1. Research indicates that males aged 16 to 18 who endorse these ideologies face significantly elevated risks of harmful behaviors: they are twice as likely to engage in excessive drinking, eight times more likely to experience suicidal ideation, and 17 times more likely to perpetrate intimate partner violence compared to their peers 1.
The evidence of algorithmic radicalization has prompted urgent action in Australia. A 2023 child abuse study found that teenage boys aged 16 to 18 commit sexual offenses against children more frequently than adults 1. One case involved the death of a 16-year-old Sydney girl, linked to alleged erotic asphyxiation 1. In response, more than 13,000 Australians have signed an open letter demanding the prime minister end algorithmic recommendations 1. The Australian government is exploring options to allow users to opt out of algorithm-driven feeds, while Contos advocates for making a follower-only timeline the default setting instead 1. Contos is scheduled to address the National Press Club on Wednesday to discuss these concerns 1.
