- 6 years ago
Facebook says it will block ads relating to Ireland's upcoming abortion referendum that have received foreign funding.
The move is aimed at adhering to Irish election spending law, under which foreign citizens and groups are not allowed to make donations to Irish campaign groups.
It also comes amid concerns of votes being affected by foreign influence.
The referendum will take place on May 25th and will decide whether to legalize abortion in Ireland.
