From the Daily Caller: Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg’s recent shift rightward appears to be little more than window dressing, as his company’s policies still favor mass censorship.
Zuckerberg rocked the online world in early January 2025 when he announced a grand policy change, vowing that his companies would pivot from their knee-jerk censorship reflexes.
Previously, Facebook and Instagram had been quick to censor, suspend, and ban users under the guise of policing hate speech and misinformation.
Meta famously suspended President Donald Trump from its platforms following the Capitol riot of Jan. 6, 2021. The company defended the decision at the time by labelling Trump’s online presence as “a serious risk to public safety.”
Trump sued Meta for the action and ended up scoring a $25 million settlement in January.
