Great idea! I am working on pushing my Facebook colleagues to work on this as well. I think the problem will not be solved unless Facebook makes a serious effort. The issue is that like the filter bubbles that are created in the social network, the company is also in an echo chamber of its own.

So, I think for all the folks that know Facebook employees, break them out of their bubble (if they are already broken, commend them and encourage them to improve Facebook). Show them that Facebook is not so rosy colored as it claims, and that they have a responsibility to build tools that promote truth and inclusion.

I think it would gain much more credibility if this were done in the open in a transparent manner. If there is a perfect fit for open source software, this is it. If folks from facebook would like to invest time/effort that would be great!
