Malaysia’s communication regulator is set to issue a warning to social media giants TikTok and Meta (formerly known as Facebook) for allegedly blocking pro-Palestinian content on their platforms, as announced by the Malaysia communications minister, Fahmi Fadzil.
In a statement on X (formerly Twitter), Fahmi Fadzil emphasized his commitment to addressing the issue.
TikTok dan META sekat kandungan pro Palestin?
Saya telah minta MCMC untuk beri teguran yang keras kepada TikTok dan META dalam isu ini.
Kalau isu ini diabaikan, saya tidak teragak-agak untuk ambil pendekatan dan pendirian yang amat tegas. pic.twitter.com/pn4IppdMdy
