Meta terminated its contract with the Bulgarian subsidiary of the Canadian-based company Telus International for moderation of Facebook content in Bulgarian, Turkish and Russian, the investigative website BIRD.bg wrote in the social networks. As of July, this activity will be shifted to Germany, the Bureau for Investigative Reporting and Data wrote. Until then, moderation is limited to paedophilia, terrorist content, calls for murder and suicide.
In recent months, the controversy over the moderation of Facebook content in Bulgarian intensified due to the silencing of journalists and public figures who are critical of Russia’s aggression in Ukraine, Mediapool reports. Last year, several weeks after the beginning of Russia's invasion in Ukraine, a petition against biased content moderation in the Bulgarian segment of Facebook was also sent to the European Parliament.
