A Latin American social media industry group that includes Facebook Inc and Twitter Inc said a reform in Mexico is a "definite violation" of an international trade pact, in swift backlash to a draft bill that seeks to regulate social media platforms.
The proposed amendment to the federal telecommunications law would breach the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) and create unjustified trade barriers, the regional manager of the Latin American Internet Association (ALAI) said on Tuesday.
The reform, drafted by Senate majority leader Ricardo Monreal of President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador's National Regeneration Movement (MORENA) party, comes amid growing calls for regulation of social media companies from some governments around the world after the platforms censored or banned former U.S. President Donald Trump due to concerns he could fan violent unrest following the storming of the U.S. Capitol in January.
There has to be a way around that to beat the crap out of twitter and FB.
