News Media Bargaining Code

Facebook bans Australian news publishers from posting and Australian users from viewing and sharing news content in a preemptive retaliation move against the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission's (ACCC) proposed News Media Bargaining Code, which would require Facebook to pay to host Australian news content. A number of key government and charity organisations were also blocked for several hours.
