(Reuters) -A prominent German environmental group said on Wednesday it was suing Facebook's parent company Meta, accusing the social media firm of failing to clamp down on insults and threats of violence and murder.
Environmental Action Germany (DUH) said in a statement that Meta had failed to shut down Facebook groups in which threats of violence were regularly posted, sometimes remaining visible for weeks without being taken down.
