Those of our regular readers who get their BBC Watch updates via Facebook may be interested to learn that the social media platform’s terms of service – according to which hate speech is prohibited – do not define Holocaust denial as hate speech.
A petition organised by the Online Hate Prevention Institute now seeks to change that. See more details here.
