According to Media Sources, Papua New Guinea has blocked access to Facebook in what authorities call a test to limit hate speech, misinformation, and pornography. Papua New Guinea’s Police Minister, Peter Tsiamalili Jr., said the government is not trying to suppress free speech but has a responsibility to protect citizens from harmful content.

As Per Media Sources, Meanwhile, the sudden ban, which started yesterday, has drawn criticism from opposition MPs and political critics, who called it a violation of human rights.
