Meta is following through on its longstanding promise to remove news content from Facebook and Instagram in Canada if the Canadian government went ahead with its Online News Act. Canada’s Online News Act demands that platforms like Facebook pay news organizations for the content they provide to said platforms. News content is going away for Canadian Facebook and Instagram users, effective immediately. The CBC/Radio Canada then asks Meta to comply with Canada’s legislation and negotiate compensation with Canadian media organizations. The post Meta’s Removal of News Content for Canadian Users Denounced by CBC appeared first on TheWrap.
