Vegacampaign banned from platforms, meat ads allowed: Wakker Dier takes NS to court

AD22 September · 18:001 day ago

Animal welfare organization Wakker Dier has filed a lawsuit against railway operator NS, arguing that the carrier arbitrarily bans its campaign urging people to skip meat for one day while allowing controversial and commercial advertisements. NS rejected the posters, claiming the message was too divisive for stations, but Wakker Dier cites precedents where political, religious, and pro-meat ads were permitted. The organization accuses NS of abusing its monopoly position by suppressing their viewpoint while promoting others. A short injunction hearing regarding this dispute is scheduled at the Utrecht court.
