Marijuana And Drug Groups Press Meta About Shadowbanning And Censorship – Marijuana Moment
Marijuana Moment reports that SSDP has obtained nearly 100 organizations in the U.S. and abroad to co-sign an open letter to Meta—the social media behemoth behind Facebook, Instagram and Threads—condemning the company for its censorship of marijuana- and drug-related content, which can limit users’ access to health, policy reform and educational materials.
“So many groups we work with have been flagged for promoting get out the vote efforts, policy panels and events, information about preventing opioid overdoses, and more,” SSDP’s executive director, Kat Murti, said in a statement.
SSDP has also repeatedly faced challenges with its own social media accounts, Murti said, “greatly limiting our ability to reach our audience and hobbling our efforts to reduce harmful drug use and promote necessary policy change.”
