Facebook bans all groups and pages connected to QAnon conspiracy
Facebook Inc. is expanding its approach to the QAnon conspiracy movement, saying it will remove all Pages, Groups and Instagram accounts linked to QAnon’s followers in an effort to limit their reach and growth online.
Facebook had previously banned QAnon Pages, Groups and accounts if they called for or celebrated violence. But that meant Groups and Pages that peddle the QAnon conspiracies, but were not explicitly violent, remained on the service.
Now associating with QAnon is in many instances against the company’s rules, Facebook said Tuesday in a blog post.
