Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg on Monday said that the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last week was largely organized on other internet services, not on Facebook. "We again took down QAnon, Proud Boys, Stop the Steal, anything that was taking about possible violence last week," Sandberg said in a live-streamed interview with Reuters. I think these events were largely organized on platforms that don't have our abilities to stop hate, don't have our standards and don't have our transparency." But there were still plenty of groups who were able to post on Facebook about storming the Capitol building before the riots last week.

Google and Facebook pledged to help one another if they ever faced an investigation into their pact to work together in online advertising, according to a report from The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday. The story is based on an unredacted version of a lawsuit filed by 10 U.S. states against Google last week that was seen by the Journal.

The lawsuit reportedly states that Google and Facebook knew their deal could result in antitrust investigations.

Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg recently argued against the two antitrust lawsuits filed this week that could result in the divestment of Instagram and WhatsApp, saying that Facebook's 2012 and 2014 acquisitions were already cleared by by the U.S. government.

"There's our services but there's iMessage, there's TikTok, there's Snapchat, many of which have grown very big, very quickly," Sandberg said. "I can't get my own kids to post on Instagram because they're so busy on Snapchat and TikTok. You know, if you want to get electricity today for your home, you've got one choice, but you've got lots of choice for your time and attention."

Across California, New York and other states, restaurants and hotels have closed or drastically reduced their operations. Airlines are reportedly considering a voluntary shutdown, events and concerts have been canceled and retailers have shut their stores and moved all commerce online.

The company said the program can help businesses with rent and operational costs, maintaining workforce and connecting with customers. Facebook has long prided itself on being a place where small businesses can market their services at an affordable price by targeting a small, relevant group of users.

Political ads make up such a tiny fraction of their revenues, both CEOs have said, that this is a matter of principle, not profit. But here's the subtext: Political advertising matters much less to Twitter than Facebook because political advertisers already leaned much more heavily on Facebook to get their messages out. For Twitter, shirking political ads is a relatively easy way to stir up headlines and gain praise from prominent Democrats, while sticking it to a competitor. Middle groundDespite Facebook and Twitter's slippery slope arguments, the solution to fair digital political advertising doesn't need to lie in the extremes, according to half a dozen political advertising researchers interviewed for this article. Current and past political ads are available in a searchable archives on Facebook and other platforms, however.
