A few days ago, Facebook (which I rarely use for some contacts) showed me two advertisements.
They featured fake videos: one had Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni suggesting to invest in a specific product, and the other simulated an interview by a well-known journalist with a minister, promoting certain types of investments.
I promptly reported the ads.
Just now, I reopened Facebook and saw this: they won’t remove the ads as it “doesn’t violate their advertising standards.”
I know people who might believe in such videos, especially older ones. I had hoped that reporting them would lead to action.
Prepare for an unsettling future ahead.
