Brazil Gives Meta 72 Hours To Explain New Fact-check Policies

Brazil on Friday gave social media giant Meta 72 hours to explain what its fact-checking policy will be for the country, and how it plans to protect fundamental rights on its platform.

“Due to the lack of transparency of this company, we will file an extrajudicial notice and the company will have 72 hours to inform the Brazilian government of its actual policy for Brazil,” Attorney General Jorge Messias told journalists.
