Meta fined over election

Brazil’s Superior Electoral Court unanimously fined Meta 7.5 million reais (about $1.3 million) for failing to ensure equal treatment in the distribution of content between Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and his rival, Flávio Bolsonaro, during the presidential election. The judges found that the company missed deadlines and provided incomplete information, but did not establish that it had deliberately sought to manipulate the electoral process. Meta denied allegations of interference, saying it had complied with judicial requirements and that the blocking of some advertisements was due to technical errors.
