Reporters Without Borders (RSF) said Tuesday it is suing Facebook in France for allegedly violating the European nation’s consumer code with deceptive promises to fight hate speech and false information.
In a press release, the Paris-based free press watchdog alleged that the U.S. social media giant has broken its own terms of services to “allow disinformation and hate speech to flourish” on the platform, including “hatred against journalists” and “significant disinformation about COVID-19.”
