Meta bans ads for Virginia Woolf play in Spain over feminism
Original: Meta bans ads for Virginia Woolf play in Spain because they relate to feminism
Meta has blocked advertising for a Spanish production of a Virginia Woolf play, telling the theatre that Facebook and Instagram ads mentioning 'social topics' such as feminism or civil rights are filtered out. The decision has drawn criticism for effectively classifying feminist content as a restricted political subject, reigniting debate over how Meta's advertising rules are applied to cultural and artistic material.
Why now: The ban highlights ongoing controversy over Meta's advertising policies restricting content about social issues.
