Facebook removed fake accounts in India until it saw BJP politician was involved
It seems to me on this topic almost everyone (including myself) is in a completely hypocritical position.We want facebook to take action in countries where we disagree, but not take action in areas/countries where we agree. Here is a perfect example.I imagine most people criticising Facebook here were in favour of facebook wiping the hunter biden story from everywhere. Because one is a conservative government, the other is a risk to electing a left wing one.The other situation china. Most people find it outrageous that Google tried to get into china by building a censoring search engine. Yet expect Google and Facebook to filter disinformation elsewhere that is a threat to their side, or even just articles sceptical of lockdown.Unfortunately in both cases we can't have both. These are directly conflicting situations, you can have one, but you can't have both.
