Meta's Oversight Board reverses decision to remove Israel-Hamas war videos

Meta's Oversight Board has overturned the company's decision to remove two videos related to the Israel-Hamas war from its platforms. The board ruled that the posts informed the world about human suffering on both sides and emphasized the importance of freedom of expression and access to information. The videos have been reinstated with a warning screen. This decision highlights the challenges social media companies face in handling content related to conflicts. Meanwhile, the European Union has launched a probe into Elon Musk-owned X (formerly Twitter) to assess whether it complies with rules on countering illegal content and disinformation.
