NZ Government Has Backdoor Access to Censor Content on FB

Source: (https://bit.ly/3XXssVu)
A response to an Official Information Act ("OIA") has uncovered that
the New Zealand Department of Internal Affairs has access to
Facebook's takedown portal.  This is the same portal used by the US
government to directly access and flag content on Facebook or
Instagram and then request that it be throttled or suppressed.
Two years ago, Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai exposed deep collusion between
the US government and social media companies, specifically Twitter
but also YouTube and Google.  During a second lawsuit in May 2021,
Dr. Shiva discovered that the Twitter backdoor portal had originally
been developed so the UK government could use it to censor UK
citizens. He also discovered the Playbooks, also created in the UK,
and the entire details of the technology architecture between the US
government and Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to censor citizens
anywhere in the world.
In a move that appeared to be a "limited hangout" operation, The
Intercept reported more than a year later, in October 2022, that
Facebook had a portal so US government officials could easily
identify the content they deem objectionable.
