Facebook restores Warren ads removed for criticizing the platform
https://thehill.com/policy/technology/433583-facebook-restores-briefly-removed-warren-ads-criticizing-the-platformFacebook on Monday restored three ads from Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-Mass.) campaign that were briefly taken down from the platform that highlighted her push for the break-up of massive tech giants, including the social media platform.
“We removed the ads because they violated our policies against use of our corporate logo. In the interest of allowing robust debate, we are restoring the ads," the company said in a statement to The Hill.
Andy Stone, a spokesperson for Facebook, noted that several other ads Warren's campaign placed that specifically referenced her proposal to breakup Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, among other tech mergers, were unaffected.
A spokeswoman for Warren's campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
