India
India isn't happy with Meta after Prime Minister Modi's Facebook post about exam paper leaks and tougher anti-cheating laws was briefly taken down.
Meta blamed an automated system glitch, but officials called that "not reasonable" and have asked Meta's global head of public policy to provide a detailed explanation.
India seeks Meta moderation tech fixes
