Big Tech Strong Arms Aussies Faceook bans ALL news stories
Big Tech gets into censorship tussle with our friends down under. With today's ALG minute, I'm catherine mortensen. Facebook announced on this week it will ban Australian media outlets and censor users within the country from sharing or viewing news articles on its service. The move comes in response to a potential Australian law that would force Google and Facebook to pay news publishers for their content.
In a statement, the tech giant said that it will block news content in the country. This is in response to Australia’s proposed Media Bargaining law, which would require Google and Facebook to compensate publishers for content. Google has also threatened to strike back against Australia, warning that it would shut down its search engine within the country should the government persist with what it calls “unworkable” legislation.
Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison shot back - quote - “We don’t respond to threats. and suggested that Australians could switch their search traffic to Microsoft’s Bing if Google decided to restrict access within the country.
