Meta accused of censoring over 1,000 pro-Lula accounts

Original: Meta is meddling with Brazilian democracy

Payday Report says Meta removed or restricted more than 1,080 accounts supporting Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva during Brazil's presidential election, prompting accusations that the company is interfering in Brazilian democracy. Critics argue the takedowns silenced left-wing voices at a decisive moment of the race, while the scale of the removals has renewed scrutiny of how Meta moderates political content in Brazil.

Why now: Claims of mass censorship of pro-Lula accounts during an election raise fresh concerns about Meta's influence on Brazilian democracy.
