Canadians will no longer have access to news content on Facebook and Instagram, Meta says
- Meta will restrict news access for Canadian users on Facebook and Instagram after Canada's Online News Act passed, which requires platforms to pay news organisations for content. Google called the legislation "unworkable" in its current form and is seeking a "path forward" to work with the government.
- The legislation is meant to enhance fairness in the digital news market and allow struggling news organisations to "secure fair compensation" for news and links shared on platforms. An independent budget watchdog estimated news businesses could receive up to C$329m per year from digital platforms.
