What happened

Well supportedReported by 6 independent outlets

Meta temporarily rolled back a test in New York City that utilized human contractors to handle certain phone calls. This operational update occurred while leaders from small island states gathered at the UN General Assembly to demand climate justice and ocean protection. Small island states warned that climate change is damaging economies and threatening water and food security.
