Meta court rules were wrong to prevent the Instagram account of the Porn Star

The highest court in Colombia ruled that Mita violated a pornographic right to freedom of expression when she deleted her Instagram account.

The Constitutional Court of the South American nation said on Friday that the technology company has removed the Spareza Gomez account “without clear and transparent justification” and without providing similar transaction to other similar accounts.

The 45 -year -old, whose account was more than five million followers, is one of the best adult content actresses in Colombia.

Mita argued in the case that she had violated her nudity rules. The company, which also owns Facebook and WhatsApp, did not immediately interact with the judgment.

Mrs. Gomez claimed that closing her account had affected her ability to work and was affected by her porn work outside the platform. She also claimed that Mita did not follow legal procedures.

In its decision, the court said that although it realized the need for the social media platform to moderate content, this did not justify the closure of the porn account “without clear and transparent justification.”

Meta also found “the application of its policies to nudity and sexual services in an inconsistent”, with other accounts with similar content that remains active.

The court said that social media sites were protected by the Colombia constitution and should be limited only in a proportional way when necessary.

Meta has ordered “review and control of the conditions of Instagram and privacy policy so that users are clearly aware of the difficult moderation decisions” and “defining” their rules on implicit sexual content more accurately.

The court said that if social media platforms use activities that are not connected to the Internet as a standard for moderate content, they must determine them clearly.

The court did not specify penalties for non -compliance, or whether Mrs. Gomez will receive any equity.

BBC called the definition to comment.

This is not the first time that the South American court has required a social network to change its policies.

The Brazil Supreme Court recently ruled that social media was directly responsible for the illegal content, including hate speech, and must act immediately to remove it and the accounts that reproduce it.

This ruling followed a judge ordering the suspension of dozens of dozens of dozens of misleading information.

This led to a briefly banned social media platform in Brazil, before you start compliance with the rule and pay a fine of $ 5.1 (3.8 million pounds).
