Digital Transformation Minister Mykhailo Fedorov announced about them. He noted that agreement is possible with Nick Clegg, the company’s head of global policy, and Monica Bickert, vice president of measured policy. The issue was discussed at the meeting held within the framework of the forum held in Davos.

Audit policy will be changed

Facebook and Instagram have become powerful tools to bring the truth about war to the world. The Ministry of Digital team is in constant communication with Meta company regarding cooperation. Hundreds of accounts of Ukrainian military, bloggers and activists have been unblocked.
Fedorov noted.

At the same time, he added that the blocking of photos and videos about the “Azov” regiment still remains the most pressing problem. Expressed his gratitude for what was agreed on Meta “A considered and important decision to change the moderation policy regarding Ukraine”.

According to the minister, millions of people around the world will have this opportunity. Find out about the success of the defenders of Mariupol. Also, the Kremlin’s propaganda will lose the argument to blame the Ukrainian heroes.

Posts about “Azov” have been blocked for years

• It should be understood that since 2014, Instagram and Facebook have blocked posts that mention the special unit of the National Guard of Ukraine “Azov”.
• Note that the press service of the National Guard has repeatedly turned to Facebook, Twitter and other social networks. Their representatives said they blocked the posts due to the large number of complaints against them.
• I wonder what was removed even posts that don’t mention any text. Social networks’ algorithms acted to detect “Azov” references in photos and delete those posts.
• Thus, at the end of the summer of 2022, it was learned that Ukraine will return to Meta to finally get rid of this blatant injustice. After all, due to Russian propaganda, information about the heroes who defended our state does not reach the world.
• we will remind that Many of Azovstal’s defenders are still in Russian captivity. And we hope that unlocking posts about “Azov” will speed up the homecoming process.
