Ukraine has asked Facebook to ban pages with news of the DNI and LC

KYIV, 6 Jul — RIA Novosti. The Ministry of information policy (MIP) of Ukraine addressed a letter to the leadership of Facebook, which accused the company of “restriction of freedom of speech” Ukrainian users, and to facilitate dissemination of the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk national republics.

The Department asks the company to make it impossible to use Facebook Toolkit “as a means of restricting the freedom of speech of Ukrainian activists, and instead take prompt and effective steps to stop the functioning of the social network pages and groups whose activities are contrary to community standards, since their activities are destructive consequences for the Ukrainian people, but also for the image of the company.”

Earlier the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko has threatened the founder of social network Facebook Mark Zuckerberg that “will work” with it, if users have a problem with privacy.
