Meta’s Copyright System Is Being Weaponized Against Albanian Protesters
Coordinated paid copyright complaints suspended about 100 Meta accounts of Albanian protesters, prompting over 30 MEPs to demand an EU investigation.
NGO Repro Uncensored verified roughly 100 Meta account restrictions tied to Albania's Flamingo Revolution protests, most triggered by coordinated copyright complaints beginning in late August. One complainant admitted being paid $1,800 in crypto to file reports. More than 30 MEPs asked the European Commission to investigate whether Meta's actions complied with the EU Digital Services Act.
