“Facebook is considering imposing a ban on political ads on its social network in the days leading up to the U.S. election in November,” Bloomberg reports.
“The potential ban is still only being discussed and hasn’t yet been finalized… A halt on ads could serve as a defense against misleading election-related content spreading widely right as people prepare to vote. Still, there are also concerns that an ad blackout could hurt ‘get out the vote’ campaigns, or limit a candidate’s ability to respond widely to breaking news or new information.”
