Meta has banned Russian state media from running ads or monetising content on Facebook as Vladimir Putin launches a sweeping crackdown on internal dissent over Russia’s unpopular and illegal aggressive war with Ukraine.
Nathaniel Gleicher, Facebook’s head of security policy, announced the ban on Twitter, writing: ‘We are now prohibiting Russian state media from running ads or monetizing on our platform anywhere in the world.
‘We also continue to apply labels to additional Russian state media. These changes have already begun rolling out and will continue into the weekend’.
