Global New News Desk -
Facebook has banned information about the Taliban. Meanwhile, Twitter and YouTube have been criticized for not taking action. Facebook considers the Taliban a terrorist organization. So all their posts and supporting comments have been banned on this platform. Facebook has confirmed this information.

Technology companies have been criticized for taking action on Facebook with information about the Taliban on their own platforms.

US-based social media outlets are facing a new challenge as the Taliban take over Afghanistan. The Taliban has been identified as a "terrorist organization" in many parts of the world.


Now the social media including Facebook is facing a challenge with the Taliban or the posts supporting them.

Last Monday, Facebook confirmed that they consider the Taliban a terrorist organization. That's why posts made by the Taliban are banned on Facebook services. Similarly, all content (images, posts, videos) supporting the Taliban is also banned.


Facebook said it has tasked a team of Afghan experts who will monitor all posts related to this and remove them from the platform if necessary.


According to Facebook, their policy will also apply to Instagram and WhatsApp. It is known that the Taliban use WhatsApp for communication.

Taliban spokesmen have used Twitter to reach thousands of followers since taking control of Afghanistan. Asked about this, the Twitter authorities told Reuters about the policy on 'violent organizations and hateful content'.


However, they did not answer any question on the basis of which they classify. According to Twitter's policy, they do not allow any organization that spreads terror and violence against civilians to use their services.


A spokesman for Facebook was quoted by the BBC as saying that US law listed the Taliban as a terrorist organization and banned all related activities on our platform. This means that all information and accounts related to the Taliban will be deleted from Facebook.

He added, "We have formed a separate team of some experts in local Dari and Pashto, whose job will be to find out information about the Taliban and inform us."
