Google said Thursday it will remove links to Canadian news on its platforms across Canada after a new law that forces digital giants to compensate media outlets for content they share or otherwise repurpose comes into force.
Only Canadian news will be blocked, so Canadian users will still be able to see content from outlets like Fox News or BBC, for example.
Meta made a similar announcement last week, saying that it will remove news from its social media platforms Facebook and Instagram before the law comes into force.
