“Meta Lifts Restrictions on Donald Trump’s Facebook and Instagram Accounts”

In a significant move, Meta has lifted the restrictions on Donald Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts, allowing him to post freely on the platforms once again. This decision comes just days after Trump criticized Meta’s CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, on his social media platform, Truth Social.

Trump’s accounts were initially suspended in 2021 following the Capitol insurrection, but were reinstated last year with certain restrictions in place. Meta has stated that both Trump and President Biden will be held to the same standards as other users, including policies against hate speech and incitement to violence.

It remains to be seen how actively Trump will use Facebook and Instagram, as he has primarily been active on Truth Social since his ban. However, this move by Meta marks a significant development in the ongoing debate over political expression on social media platforms.
