A spokesman for the couple confirmed they are privately supporting the #StopHateforProfit campaign that puts pressure on big brands, according to Insider. A growing ad boycott campaign, called "Stop Hate for Profit," was started by several US civil rights groups after the death of George Floyd, to pressure the company to act on hate speech and misinformation. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have also been in talks with US civil rights groups who started the boycott, reports said. In a statement, a Facebook spokeswoman pointed to its civil rights audit and investments in Artificial Intelligence that allow it to find and take action on hate speech.
