EU launches disinformation probe against social media giant

The European Union has initiated a disinformation probe against Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram. The EU claims that Meta's efforts to moderate content are "insufficient." This move comes as part of ongoing efforts to combat the spread of fake news and misinformation on social media platforms.

Meta rejects EU claim

Meta has rejected the EU's claim that its content moderation efforts are inadequate. The company has stated that it is committed to combating disinformation and has implemented various measures to address the issue. However, the EU's probe signals increasing scrutiny of social media companies and their role in controlling the flow of information online.
