Facebook in negotiations with Australia government after news ban

Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison on Saturday said Facebook is back in negotiations with the government after the tech platform decided to restrict users in Australia from sharing news content.

“What I’m pleased about is that Facebook’s back at the table. And that’s what we want to see,” Morrison said at a press conference on Saturday morning local time as quoted by The Hill. “We want to work through this issue. So I welcome the fact that they’re back engaging with the government, as they should.”
