Facebook is lifting its political ad ban — in Georgia only

Facebook is lifting its political ad ban in Georgia only Vox.com 12/15/2020 Rebecca Heilweil © Tom Williams/CQ-Roll Call via Getty Images All four Georgia Senate candidates are upset they can’t run political ads on Facebook. (Above, a Georgia voter in November.) Open Sourced logo Less than a week after Joe Biden secured a victory in the 2020 presidential election, it looked like Facebook’s post-election plan was backfiring. In November, the company announced it would extend its ban on political ads for at least another month, and possibly longer, in an attempt to quell confusion over an election that President Donald Trump lost but still hasn’t conceded. Google similarly told advertisers it was unlikely to lift its political ad ban in November or December, according to the Wall Street Journal. Then, last week, Google lifted its ban on political advertisements.

How hackers, probably Russian, infiltrated the federal government

Justice Department now says its email accounts were “potentially accessed” in Russia hack Vox.com 1/6/2021 Sara Morrison © Mladen Antonov/AFP via Getty Images A joint task force of US security agencies says that Russia is “likely” the actor behind the massive malware attack on federal agencies last year. Open Sourced logo Federal security agencies have finally confirmed that the massive hack of government and private computer systems that was uncovered in mid-December was likely Russian in origin. A statement from a joint task force issued January 5 was one of the first from an administration that has been reluctant to share many details about the hack thus far, possibly because President Trump refuses to acknowledge that Russia was its most likely perpetrator. The Department of Justice has now revealed that its email accounts were breached as well.
