    Instagram Apologizes For Adding ‘Terrorist’ To Palestinian User Profiles

    [ad_1]

    Meta has apologized after inserting the word “terrorist” into the profile bios of some Palestinian Instagram users, in what the company says was a bug in auto-translation. What do you think?

    “An insult to all of us who worked hard to earn a verified terrorist badge through the proper channels.”

    Shawna Dorwart, Consultant Coach

    “But those users don’t have to apologize for being Palestinian?”

    Cody Blanchard, Bematist

    “It’s fascinating how auto-translation bugs can sometimes mirror the exact sentiments of the people in charge of them.”

    Jemille Zeller, Unemployed
