The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) is suing Meta Platforms for allegedly allowing misleading cryptocurrency ads on Facebook.
澳大利亚竞争和消费者委员会(ACCC)正在起诉元平台，称其在Facebook上允许误导性的加密货币广告。
The Australian regulator claims Meta breached consumer and investment laws for not doing enough to remove scam ads from Facebook that featured public figures promoting crypto.
澳大利亚监管机构称，Meta违反了消费者和投资法，因为它没有采取足够的措施，从Facebook上删除以公众人物宣传加密货币为主题的诈骗广告。
The regulator claims Facebook allowed the scam ads to continue even after said public figures complained to the social media giant that their names and images were being used on the crypto ads without their content.
监管机构称，即使有公众人物向这家社交媒体巨头投诉称，加密广告中使用了他们的名字和图像，却没有内容，但Facebook仍允许这些诈骗广告继续进行。
