Brazil Fines Facebook for Failing to Comply with Laws During Election

Brazil's electoral authority fined Meta's Facebook 7.5 million reais ($1.34 million) for failing to fully comply with judicial orders during last month's presidential election runoff campaign, but said ​there was no evidence so far the company had deliberately acted to ‌influence the outcome. In a unanimous decision, the country's top electoral court (TSE) ruled that Facebook had failed to adequately meet court demands related to allegations that its platform treated content from the rival ​campaigns of leftist President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and right-wing Senator Flavio ​Bolsonaro differently.
