I tried to post several links to news on this topic to Facebook just now. Would not let me. Now all posts except ads are blank now. I guess that's my "punishment". Fuck you Facebook!
Have you been living under a rock? Canadian news isn't allowed on Facebook because our government decided Facebook had to pay to host news links and they weren't even close to making a deal before they signed it into law. It was a political stunt. Government gets to pretend they're putting pressure on big tech, then they can blame big tech when their shitty terms aren't accepted, then in a couple years when they make a deal they can act like they won.
I tried posting a link from NPR also
You can't share or view any news on Facebook, not just Canadian
