Australia Vows to Continue Talks with Facebook After News Blockade

Australian Treasurer Josh Frydenberg said he would continue his talks with Facebook Inc Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg after the social media platform blocked its news feeds in the country over disputes over a new media payment code. “We spoke yesterday morning but then we were subsequently in contact and we agreed to talk later this morning, we’ll see where those discussions go and we can find a pathway going forward,” Frydenberg told the Australian Broadcasting Corp.
