Lula's Campaign Accuses Meta of Bias in Content Restrictions
The campaign of Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva issued a statement accusing Meta of attempting to interfere in the election process in favor of his right-wing rival, former President Jair Bolsonaro. The statement mentioned that Facebook, WhatsApp, and Instagram platforms restricted Lula's accounts and those of leftist leaders, leading to a decrease in the reach of their content and blocking their accounts from search features before the first round of voting. Meta in Brazil responded to the allegations, denying the claims and explaining that the technical issues were not limited to Brazil or specific accounts. They affirmed their commitment to electoral rules to ensure equal opportunities for all users.
