Part 5 - Meta censoring, Microsoft ban

 

For his part, Meta's Vice President of Global Affairs and Communications Nick Clegg confirmed that the company has limited access to the Russian RT broadcaster and the Sputnik news agency across the EU.

Clegg announced on Twitter, "We have received requests from a number of Governments and the EU to take further steps in relation to Russian state-controlled media. Given the exceptional nature of the current situation, we will be restricting access to RT and Sputnik across the EU at this time."

In an email to Sputnik, Facebook stated that access to the agency's page had been banned "following a review of a legal request."

The message read, "We carefully review each request against our policies and conduct a legal and human rights assessment. After this review, we may restrict access to the reported content in the locations where it is alleged to be unlawful."

TikTok confirmed as well that it has restricted access to "Russian-backed" accounts, including Sputnik and RT throughout the EU.

Following Meta, Microsoft released an official statement that it would be complying with EU directives to remove RT news app from its "windows store, de-rank Sputnik and RT in Bing results, and remove RT and Sputnik content from MSN and Microsoft Start."

Microsoft claimed that the move is intended "against state-sponsored disinformation campaigns, which have long been commonplace in times of war."
