Facebook has been included on Burma Campaign UK’s “dirty list” of corporations accused of involvement in human rights and environmental violations, or of doing business with the military, reports the Dhaka Tribune.

Burma Campaign UK said Facebook was on the “dirty list” because it had “consistently allowed its platform to be used to incite hatred and violence [against] minorities in Burma, in particular the the minority group – Rohingya, and Muslims in general”.

Burma Campaign UK acknowledged that Facebook had recently taken action to rectify abuse of social media in Burma, but on the “dirty list” accused it of not going far enough.
