Meta Platforms will extend its ban on new political ads after the US election, maintaining the suspension until later this week, the Facebook-parent said in a blog post on Monday.
In response to the rampant spread of misinformation during the previous presidential election, tech firms are maintaining heightened scrutiny this year.
During the restriction period, Meta will disallow new political ads. However, previously served ads with at least one impression before the ban's implementation will continue to run, albeit with restricted editing options.
