China's state media buys Meta ads pushing Russia's line on war
While Meta is protecting U.S. users from state-sponsored media disinformation, the rest of the world deserves similar protections from countries close to Moscow, like China, who are using their state channels to buy ads pushing a pro-Russian line. "Facebook is a global platform, and this conflict is going to have repercussions for everyone living everywhere," said Laura Edelson, co-founder of the Cybersecurity for Democracy initiative. "[The rules] matter for global stability and it's important that they are enforced everywhere."
