Facebook reportedly banned several organizations in slotxo Myanmar that joined forces against the military coup that took place in February, according to the Rest of World report. Such things as the Arakan Army and its allies are classified as terrorist organizations by democratically elected governments.Things have changed in Myanmar since then. After the military coup and the government seizure by the Tatmadaw (post-election run by the military claimed to be fraud), the political situation was very complex. One thing, however, seems clear:

The Arakan Army is no longer classified as a terrorist organization, either by a current military-led government or by an elected government that is currently in refuge. However, according to the Rest of World, the Arakan Army is not yet banned on Facebook.AA is not the only group that finds itself unable to communicate via Facebook.There are apparently a large number of ethnic armed organizations (EAOs) operating in the country, some of which have come together against the coup government, which has cracked down on those. Fiercely pro-democratic protests,

many of their Facebook pages were restricted in 2019 under the behest of a democratically elected government that had already been subverted.According to other parts of the world, the EAO ban was also controversial before the coup.Some argued that it prevented the spread of information on human rights violations such as genocide against Rohing Muslims. Now run by the Tatmadaw group, EAOs and domestic journalists argue that the ban by Facebook prevents them from showing what is happening in the current battle with the junta.

The director of human rights organizations told the Rest of World that the ban was "like trying to cover people's eyes".Facebook also banned pages related to Tatmadaw after the takeover, but human rights activist Thinzar Shunlei Yi told the Rest of World the company has continued to fail to respond to the political shift that has taken place in Myanmar since. Then came and called on the company to create an official supervisory board of the country.
