“Blaming”? No one wants them to begin with…

The government parties do. That's who they're targeting with this 'news'.

Any government party seen bending to the metatwats can fuck off too. But unfortunately they really want the exposure to show the kids how hip they are.

The government parties do.

The government parties who approved these regulations..?

Not all of them, but that's what meta is trying to get at. "Your laws stop us from marketing you u to the masses"

Fuck 'em. I hope I live to watch meta crumble to shit and everything like it.

"No one"

They don't give a shit what their users want. Their users are part of the product they sell. Their customers are their advertisers. This is bad news for political advertisers and their investors, both of whom absolutely want political advertising on the platform. This is a good thing. It would be a much better thing if people would just stop using Meta products altogether
