Meta and Twitter takes down pro-US propaganda campaign taken

Twitter and Meta have removed from their platforms an online propaganda campaign aimed at promoting US interests abroad. The accounts promoted narratives in support of the US and its allies, while opposing countries like Russia, China and Iran, the researchers said. The suspended accounts, some of which were set up almost five years ago, were targeting audiences in the Middle East and Central Asia in multiple languages. This is the first major covert pro-US propaganda operation taken down by the tech giants, says a report by social media. Is this a step to social media neutrality ?
