Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Criticize Meta's Fact-Checking Changes
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have expressed their discontent with Meta's recent adjustments to its fact-checking policies, claiming it undermines free speech. They argue that the updated 'Hateful Content Policies' do not safeguard free expression, but rather create an atmosphere where hate speech can silence communities essential to democracy. Meghan, who recently returned to Instagram, highlighted her past discussions with Meta about online safety. The criticism was echoed by Mastodon CEO Eugen Rochko and Meta's oversight board co-chair Michael McConnell, who both voiced concerns over the lack of consultation regarding these changes.
