Our partner Derechos Digitales is celebrating a milestone: in 2025, they prevented Meta from censoring political activism in Argentina. The Oversight Board reversed the removal of a political poem critical of the government, which had been published as an image. The Oversight Board considered comments submitted by Derechos Digitales, setting a fundamental precedent for the moderation of content that combines artistic and political expression.

Political Billboards is a civic tech initiative by Impetus that brings order to the chaos of political advertising in public spaces across North Macedonia. By mapping every billboard used for paid political campaigns, the platform shows who is advertising where and how in public space – and with public funding. Citizens are invited to participate: anyone can send photos and GPS locations of billboards from their town.
