Russia has reportedly added Meta Platforms’ spokesperson, Andy Stone, to a wanted list on unspecified charges. The Russian Interior Ministry is said to have initiated a criminal investigation against Stone, but details of the charges have not been disclosed. Stone is accused of “lifting a ban on calls for violence against the Russian military on its platforms,” according to the Russian investigative committee. Meta’s platforms, Facebook and Instagram, were banned in Russia after the country’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. Meta has not yet responded to requests for comment on the situation.
