Meta, the social media conglomerate formerly known as Facebook, has threatened to remove news from its platforms if the US adopts a law that would force it to negotiate with publishers to pay them for allowing links to their content.If that sounds familiar, your memory is holding up well: Australia proposed just such a law in 2021, Facebook pulled news from its platform for a few weeks, but then came back to the bargaining table and agreed to pay local news outlets.
