Unilever, one of the world’s biggest consumer goods companies, is threatening to remove all advertising from Google and Facebook’s platforms, citing factors like inclusion of “toxic online content” and the rise of “fake news.”

Co-headquartered in London and Rotterdam, the Netherlands, the conglomerate is unhappy with how these tech companies are being misused, and the purported lack of Facebook and Google trying to combat such exploitation.

“Unilever will not invest in platforms or environments that do not protect our children or which create division in society, and promote anger or hate,” Unilever Chief Marketing Officer Keith Weed is going to say Monday during an annual leadership meeting, according to a copy of his speech obtained by The Daily Caller News Foundation. (The Wall Street Journal first reported on the speech). “We will prioritize investing only in responsible platforms that are committed to creating a positive impact in society.”
