Nineteen members of Congress urged Zuckerberg to explain Meta's allowance of ads for illegal drugs on Facebook, highlighting a troubling lack of enforcement against drug-related advertisements.
The lawmakers state, 'Meta appears to have continued to shirk its social responsibility... Many of these ads contained blatant references to illegal drugs... easily found by researchers.'
The letter demands details on Meta's policies for enforcing drug-related ad rules, including statistics on ad views and interactions, noting the urgency with a deadline of September 6.
A Meta spokesperson confirmed the company would respond, reiterating their stance on rejecting 'hundreds of thousands of ads for violating our policies.'
