Facebook has censored the materials of four Russian media
Facebook’s restrictions on Russian media violate major principles of free flow of information and unrestricted access to it for Russian users, Russia’s internet regulatory agency Roskomnadzor stated. Roskomnadzor also noted that there was no formal explanation for the actions taken against the Zvezda TV station, the RIA Novosti news agency, the Lenta.ru and Gazeta.ru internet websites. Roskomnadzor has demanded that the censored Russian media outlets are unblocked.
