Facebook Considers 'Removing News' if U.S. Adopts 'Journalism Competition' Act

Facebook warns it could ban news in the U.S. if Congress passes a bill that would require the platform to negotiate with and compensate publishers for their content. Andy Stone, Meta’s head of policy communications, said on Twitter that Facebook will “be forced to consider removing news” from Facebook if the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA) is passed.
