Publishing timestamp: 2021-01-11 21:28:06
Summary
Facebook will remove content containing the phrase "stop steal" in the lead-up to President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration, treat the next two weeks as a major civic event, and place labels on posts attempting to delegitimize the election. The company will also livestream the inauguration and maintain its pause on political ads in the U.S. This decision comes after the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last week.
