Venezuela calls Facebook suspension of Maduro ‘digital totalitarianism’

Venezuela’s government on Sunday accused Facebook Inc of “digital totalitarianism” after it froze President Nicolas Maduro’s page for 30 days for violating its policies against spreading misinformation about COVID-19.

Facebook said it followed guidance from the World Health Organization (WHO) that there is currently no medication that can cure the virus. By by Deisy Buitrago, Luc Cohen. Full Text -> TheGuardian
