Lula da Silva's campaign calls for the annulment of Flávio Bolsonaro's candidacy due to "interference" from Meta

Lula da Silva's campaign is seeking to annul Flávio Bolsonaro's candidacy due to alleged interference by Meta, claiming algorithmic manipulation to harm Lula's campaign. This complaint will be filed with the Electoral Superior Court, coinciding with Meta's acknowledgment of recurring content moderation failures related to elections. The Brazilian Justice has demanded Meta ensure equal treatment for both candidates' campaigns. Lula accused Meta of restricting his content on social media, while Meta denied any bias, attributing issues to technical incidents. Protests occurred outside Meta's São Paulo office, demanding an end to perceived electoral interference.
