    Wait, this article makes it sound like Meta would have to pay for other people posting links on Facebook to news websites. If that’s the case, that’s nuts. Are they gonna try doing this with Reddit and Lemmy too, or does it just apply to Facebook? Cause that’s a great way to get Canadian news sites banned from everything on the entire net.
