Justin Trudeau accuses Meta of prioritizing profits over safety by blocking wildfire news

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday criticized the Facebook-parent company Meta for blocking domestic news from its platforms. Trudeau said that the Meta was prioritizing profit over safety as wildfires force tens of thousands to evacuate their homes. Trudeau's comments represent the latest government attack on Meta, which this month started blocking news on its platforms for all users in Canada in response to a new law requiring internet giants to pay for news articles.
