Senator Risa Hontiveros on Friday, Aug. 28, said that Meta has agreed to share user data with Philippine law enforcement authorities when there are indications of an imminent threat of violence.
The commitment came after Meta policy officers and Philippine officials discussed the social media platform’s responsibility in addressing the spread of nihilistic violent extremism. Hontiveros said her camp pushed Meta to provide subscriber information and traffic data to Philippine authorities when there are indications of imminent attacks, to which the tech giant agreed.
