Маніпуляція Facebook and Instagram have banned Russians from accessing the song Stefania by Eurovision winners Kalush Orchestra

Dozens of Russian media outlets wrote about the fact that Russians cannot listen to the song that won this year's Eurovision Song Contest on Facebook and Instagram. Their messages say that "access for Russians to the song of Eurovision 2022 winners - Ukrainian hip-hop group Kalush Orchestra is blocked in social networks Facebook and Instagram (banned in Russia, owned by Meta Corporation, which is recognized as extremist in Russia)." Such messages also add that this track cannot be added to both social networks and cannot be listened to if you are in Russia. However, as it turned out, access to the song in social networks is blocked to Russians not by Meta, the company that owns Facebook and Instagram, but by the company that owns the recording. Since Sony Music suspended all operations in Russia on March 10, 2022 and does not release new content in the country, the winning track and is not available for Russians to listen to in social networks. This is not the first time Russia has spread fakes on social networks. In particular, a video of Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg with Russian voiceover was recently circulated on social networks, in which he allegedly says, Facebook is closing down and leaving Russia. However, this is also untrue
