It was an attempt to replicate similar legislation in Australia. The difference is Rupert Murdoch is almighty in Australian politics and any retorsion of the kind Meta deployed in Canada would have been met with stern reprisals from the supine government. No media group has that kind of power in Canada.
- slyall 2y agoMeta gave notice at the start of 2024 that it wouldn't renew it's agreements in Australia when they expire. It looks like the agreements have expired in the last few weeks and things are working their way through a process.
