Facebook to restore Australia news pages soon after striking deal

Australia’s treasurer said Facebook will restore news pages on the platform in the country after striking a deal for amendments to a proposed law that would force the tech giant to pay for media content. Canberra will offer four changes, including a change to the mechanism for final offer arbitration. Last week, Facebook had blocked all news content and several Australian government accounts.
