Meta repeatedly snubs EU body over Facebook and Instagram user bans
Summary
BBC reports that Meta rarely provides evidence to the EU's Appeals Centre Europe in cases of users claiming wrongful bans on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads. The independent body reviewed 4,600 cases and found Meta supplied relevant content in fewer than 100, highlighting friction in enforcement and appeals within EU digital regulation. The piece also covers cross-platform hate-speech moderation decisions, transparency efforts, and the EU Digital Services Act’s expectation of good-faith engagement, noting ongoing tension between platforms and regulators.
