Meta’s decision to ban ads about politics, elections, and social issues on their platforms like Facebook and Instagram in the EU is now implemented.
This is the new policy. Any ad about fx elections, civil rights, economy, health, climate, immigration, or foreign policy is now (presumably) banned.

Instagram has suddenly removed the account of Lebanese journalist Ghadi Francis without explanation.
The Lebanese journalist previously had over 400k followers. She is one of the most influential journalists reporting in the English language on Israel’s war on southern Lebanon.
Francis has since created a new account and goes by the following username: @ghadifranciss
@fistfulofdave cuddle every #activist collective who organises on #Instagram (and explain to them that whilst they may be networking with like minds there, they have zero reach and are converting precisely zero others to worthy causes. oh and they're putting their friends in danger by liking & sharing posts. #Palantir eats those networks for breakfast.)
Une belle épine dans le pied de Zuckerberg :
Aux Pays-Bas, les algorithmes ne feront plus la loi sur Facebook ou Instagram
Meta doit proposer à ses utilisateurs aux Pays-Bas une option sans algorithme permettant aux utilisateurs de définir un fil d'actualité chronologique par défaut, a statué un tribunal d'Amsterdam jeudi

Rechter: Instagram en Facebook moeten algoritmevrije optie krijgen. Meta krijgt twee weken om zijn apps aan te passen voor Nederlandse gebruikers. Doet het bedrijf dat niet, dan moet het Bits of Freedom een dwangsom van 100.000 euro per dag betalen, met een maximum van vijf miljoen euro.
(Wel jammer dat er een maximum is)

Pay or consent advertising is coming the UK 👎
At the Newsmast Foundation we oppose this binary choice approach to advertising which will, without doubt, affect the most marginalised communities.
We hope that the UK will follow the example of the EU and block Meta from actioning this change.

Je souhaiterais qu'on arrête en tant que bibliothécaires de faire de la communication sur des réseaux sociaux qui appartiennent à la #broligarchie et j'ai écrit ça pour essayer de convaincre mes collègues

Je ne serai pas présent au congrès de l'#ADBU où il sera question particulièrement de communication en BU. Ce serait cool si on pouvait y traiter ce genre de problème. #Meta #instagram #mastodon #communicationStrategy #Communs #JE_ADBU_2025
"Despite years of congressional hearings, lawsuits, academic research, whistleblowers and testimony from parents and teenagers about the dangers of Instagram, Meta’s wildly popular app has failed to protect children from harm, with 'woefully ineffective' safety measures, according to a new report from former employee and whistleblower Arturo Bejar and four nonprofit groups."

I know many people who are aware of the importance of #FreedomRespecting software, data, and culture - and the related issues of digital sovereignty and privacy.
Paradoxically, a lot of these people also participate in, or even maintain, communities hosted on #nonfree / #proprietary / #restricted or #centralized platforms like #Telegram, #Discord, #WhatsApp, #Signal, #Instagram, #Facebook, #Twitter, #LinkedIn, #Bluesky, #GitHub, and others.
To state the obvious, each community which chooses a proprietary platform - or bridges to it - is also giving another reason for others to be on that platform. It’s reinforcing network effect.
Conversely, if these communities chose to move to free platforms, their members would be forced to move as well. In other words, these communities have the opportunity to push for change on a massive scale.
Sure, you have to reach out to people on proprietary platforms, if that’s where the majority are. But you cannot be stopping there - you must have a strategy to move people away from proprietary platforms to free platforms.
To give the example of #OpenStreetMap -
So to the people who are choosing - and therefore promoting - proprietary platforms, I ask…
How do you think things are going to change, if everyone keeps choosing what is easiest for them, and keeps choosing, supporting, and promoting proprietary platforms?
What part are you playing in making things better? Or are you just going to go with the flow of the world, even if you know it to be wrong?
They don’t like answering these questions.
Instead, I invite them to find the integrity and courage to answer them.
Or, to find the integrity and courage to make the obvious change and do the obvious right thing.
People hate it when I bring this up. Sorry, but my conscience dictates that I speak up for what is right. Silence is complicity, and it gets us nowhere.
