The war between the Australian government and the US multinational company Facebook Inc. is increasing. Facebook banned the posting of news and emergency services in Australia, after which Australian PM Scott Morrison discussed the call with Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi and sought his assistance. According to The Sydney Morning Herald, Australia's PM Scott Morrison on Thursday discussed the call with Prime Minister Modi.
Morrison said, "They are changing the world, but that does not mean that they will also run the world now." We are not afraid of these threats from big tech companies. They are trying to build emphasis on our Parliament because we are voting on the important news media bargaining code. There has been a lot of controversy between the Government of Australia and Facebook about the posting of news sites on Facebook. Recently, Facebook took a very unexpected step in protest against a law of the Government of Australia and banned the posting of news, health, and emergency services there. Facebook is being criticized a lot for this.
Facebook banned news content sharing for all Australian users and media, publishers. Not only this, but it also removed many emergency services posts there. The Australian PM is constantly advocating that Facebook content be brought under government regulation.
