Meta’s oversight board ordered the removal of a video posted on Facebook by Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen in which he threatened violence against his political opponents and called for an immediate suspension of his accounts. The ruling, reversing a previous decision, marks the first time the oversight board has instructed Meta to shut down an account run by a government leader, and suggests that the company may be shifting its stance on how it deals with content posted by users who have otherwise enjoyed impunity in what they say on its site. Hun Sen called on his social media followers to switch to rival platforms TikTok or Telegram. Prime Minister Hun Sen, has requested that all TikTok account creators who use the Premier’s name be deleted, as there are currently many fake TikTok accounts using his name.
