Although users will still be able to view links to news articles and European news publications within the region and would still have access to their Facebook pages, Meta has said it will discontinue the “Facebook News” feature on their social media application in December in some European countries including the United Kingdom, France, and Germany.
Reuters reported that upon implementation of this policy, Facebook will no longer form new commercial deals for news content on “Facebook News” and will not offer product innovations for news publishers in the European countries where this policy is implemented.
