US Presidential Elections 2024: Facebook Lifts Restrictions on Donald Trump, Gives Him Equal Footing With President Joe Biden on the Social Media Site
Meta, Facebook's parent company, lifted that ban last year but announced Trump would be subject to 'guardrails' such as 'heightened suspension penalties' if posts violated its standards.
Washington, July 13: Facebook has lifted restrictions imposed on Donald Trump after the Jan 6 attack on the Capitol, placing the former president on an equal footing on the platform with President Joe Biden just days before the Republican National Convention. The social media giant had initially banned the former president from using its platforms in 2021 after his supporters stormed the Capitol. Meta, Facebook's parent company, lifted that ban last year but announced Trump would be subject to 슬롯사이트œguardrails슬롯사이트� such as "heightened suspension penalties슬롯사이트� if posts violated its standards.
Now, the company has removed those restrictions, reasoning that while they were put in place following the 슬롯사이트œextreme and extraordinary circumstances슬롯사이트� of the Capitol attack, Trump had not done anything to run afoul of them.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Meta Ends Restrictions on Donald Trump슬롯사이트™s Facebook and Instagram Accounts After 17 Months.
