Meta came under fire from Japanese regulators over fraudulent advertisements appearing on its platform. According to internal documents obtained by Reuters, the company responded by adjusting how content surfaced in its Ad Library—essentially making scam listings harder to discover during regulatory searches. The approach raised eyebrows: rather than removing the problematic ads outright, Meta appeared to employ a more subtle tactic, obscuring visibility of fraud-related content. Japan's concerns highlight a broader tension between platforms' enforcement efforts and their actual execution. For users and regulators alike, the revelation underscores challenges in maintaining transparency around cryptocurrency-related scams, which frequently exploit ad networks to reach unsuspecting investors.
