SINGAPORE - Facebook Inc said it was “deeply concerned” about a Singapore government order to block access to a blog page on its social media website under a controversial fake news law.

The government had ordered Facebook this week to block the States Times Review’s page in Singapore, saying the blog had repeatedly conveyed falsehoods and had not complied with any of the directions that it had been served with under the Protection from Online Falsehoods and Manipulation Act .“We believe orders like this are disproportionate and contradict the government’s claim that POFMA would not be used as a censorship tool.

It has been censured under the fake news law three times, most recently for articles criticizing Singapore’s handling of the coronavirus outbreak, which the government said contained “entirely false” information.
