Facebook will stop allowing users to post home addresses
Facebook and Instagram parent company Meta will stop permitting users to share private home addresses on its social media platforms to prevent targeted protests due to "doxing".
The decision comes following a recommendation from Meta's Oversight Board to remove a previous exception that allowed for sharing a person's home address if it were "publicly available".
