This is not the first time Biden\u2019s camp has criticized the social media giant, nor is it the first time Facebook has taken heat for its lax <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roach to moderating content from the president. <\/p>\n<p>The letter notes that Facebook said it would work to fight misinformation as the election gets closer. But since then, the Biden team says it has \u201cseen regression\u201d rather than \u201cprogress\u201d by the social media giant. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFacebook\u2019s continued promise of future action is serving as nothing more than an excuse for inaction,\u201d the letter reads. \u201cMillions of people are voting. Meanwhile, your platform is the nation\u2019s foremost propagator of disinformation about the voting process. This state of affairs cannot be reconciled with a single public statement your company has made about these issues.\u201d  <\/p>\n<p>The letter blasts Facebook\u2019s labels on election posts as being in a place where \u201cmany viewers will miss it\u201d and says the social media giant should remove posts by the president that violate its policies against election information, such as encouraging his supporters to vote twice. <\/p>\n<p>The Biden campaign\u2019s gripes with Facebook echo long-running criticisms the platform has faced during the election cycle. The company\u2019s ad policy has been criticized because it allows politicians to put anything in their ads, even if the information is false. <\/p>\n<p>In response to the ad criticism, Facebook announced that it would ban political ads for the week running up to the election\u2014albeit with some loopholes\u2014and would ban any ads that prematurely declare victory before the results of the election are certified. <\/p>\n<p>With the expected massive increase of mail-in ballots because of the coronavirus pandemic, it is possible an election victory will not be certified on election night. <\/p>\n<p>Axios published all of Biden\u2019s letter to Facebook.
