Facebook (now known as Meta) CEO Mark Zuckerberg warned that his platform, the largest social media platform in the world, may have to remove news content altogether if Congress passes the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA), a bill that will create a cartel of media conglomerates capable of forcing Big Tech to transfer wealth to them.
In a comment slamming recent efforts to attach the JCPA to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Zuckerberg said forcing the tech industry to deliver financial handouts to media conglomerates would create a “terrible precedent.”
The statement, recently published on social media by Facebook spokesman Andy Stone, is copied in full below:
