Meta, the parent company of Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram, announced that it is banning RT and other Russian government outlets from using its platforms, alleging that they have amplified Moscow’s propaganda using deceptive tactics, the Associated Press reported.
“After careful consideration, we expanded our ongoing enforcement against Russian state media outlets: Rossiya Segodnya, RT and other related entities are now banned from our apps globally for foreign interference activity,” Meta said in a statement.
