People outside the country are also unable to read or access any Australian news publications on the platform.Several government health and emergency pages were also blocked. Facebook later asserted this was a mistake and many of these pages are now back online.Both Google and Facebook have fought the law, saying it unfairly "penalises" their platforms.However, in contrast to Facebook, Google has in recent days signed payment deals with major Australian media outlets. Facebook's action came hours after <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-56101859" target="_blank">Google agreed to pay Rupert Murdoch's News Corp for content from news sites across its media empire.</a><h2>[ATTACH=full]113598[/ATTACH]</h2><a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-56109036" target="_blank">https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-56109036</a></blockquote>
