Did Meta Meddle in the Brazilian Election? w/ Laís Martins
Om avsnittet
Lula has made history as the first candidate to win a presidential election despite losing the first round of voting, all while Meta seemed to be putting its thumb on the scale for his far-right competition. Laís Martins joins Paris Marx to discuss the Brazilian presidential election, how Meta’s moderation heavily favored Flávio Bolsonaro while limiting Lula’s reach, and where Brazilian tech policy might go next.
Laís Martins is a technology reporter at The Intercept Brasil.
