I hit my first instance of Meta blocking Canadian news content.

Rachael sent me a story from #CBCVancouver via Instagram messages.

The thumbnail is visible in messages (1), but when I click, I get the restricted message (2)

I wasn’t following the CBCVancouver account, and when I search for and visit the profile, I get a different message (3)

I guess Rachael hasn’t had this rolled out to her account yet.

Remember, there are no good guys in this #BillC18 debacle.

    Now if only more people would terminate their relationship with Meta and move to social media services where individuals have a say in how things are shared and monetized.
