This dataset comprises Facebook data on five cases of religious misinformation in Bangladesh. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first publicly accessible dataset on Facebook-based religious misinformation in the country, featuring 7350 comments contributed by unique users. As online religious misinformation has been implicated in causing interreligious violence and tension in Bangladesh, this dataset can offer crucial insights into how social media is being exploited to foment such events. It may also help advance policy reform and activism to protect human rights and prevent the spread of religious misinformation.
该数据集包含了关于孟加拉国五起宗教错误信息的脸书数据。据我们所知,这是该国首个可公开获取的基于脸书的宗教错误信息数据集,有7350条由不同用户贡献的评论。由于在线宗教错误信息在孟加拉国被认为是引发宗教间暴力和紧张局势的原因之一,该数据集可以为社交媒体如何被用于煽动此类事件提供关键见解。它还可能有助于推动政策改革和维权行动,以保护人权并防止宗教错误信息的传播。
