I wish Westminster held these US Social Media corporations to account in the same way.
Yet each and every UK govt. department, council and institution embrace and utilise their services to disseminate information.
This compels the UK populus to register personal details with them to access this information. This is despite their weak data protections and inadequate content moderation.
Generating immense revenue from surveillance advertising, profits are spirited out of UK jurisdiction thereby avoiding tax which degrades our health system, roads, education and other essential services.
These profits further enrich thier right-wing billionaire owners and fund global broadcast of their own world view. An abuse of power that has demonstratably destabilised countries who do not align or agree with them.
Why is it just Brazil that has the cojones to do this and take them on?
