Meta employees confirm in internal communications of alleged bias against Lula in Brazilian elections

Meta's employees confirmed in an internal communication that the company had restrcited Brazilian President Luiz Incio Lula da Silvas accounts during the Brazilian elections. The development followed Brazil's top electoral court ruling that the tech company must ensure equal treatment of the presidential candidates ahead of the October 25 runoff elections. The ruling had come after Lula filed a complaint accusing Meta of restrictions in favour of opposition candidate Flavio Bolsonaro.
