AG Tong and AG James co-led a coalition of 14 AGs in a letter urging Meta to protect legitimate election-related activity on its platforms following the erroneous suspension of the No Kings Coalition’s Instagram account in the midst of nationwide demonstrations on October 17.
"This is not Meta’s first election cycle. The company should be able to handle a legitimate surge in online traffic related to a widely publicized day of action. The fact that they could not raises serious questions as to how prepared the company is to protect legitimate election-related activity on its platform." – AG Tong
