Is the Facebook Jew Zuckerberg back tracking? – Meta Nixes Fact-Checking

(000228.79-:E-000157.73:N-:R-SU:C-30:V)   

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced broad changes to the social media company’s content moderation policies yesterday, including ending its US fact-checking program and removing restrictions on sensitive political content on its platforms, including Facebook and Instagram.

The CEO claimed Meta’s adoption of more stringent content moderation after the 2016 election led to the mistaken censorship of millions of users (watch video). In place of fact-checkers, the company will deploy Community Notes in the US—similar to those on X—where users provide context to posts. It will still use its violation scanner to address high-severity issues like terrorism and child exploitation. The company will also move its safety and trust teams from California to Texas.

Zuckerberg also signaled he would support the incoming Trump administration’s efforts to combat foreign censorship. The changes follow Meta’s appointment last week of Republican Joel Kaplan as its foreign policy chief and its $1M donation to Trump’s inaugural fund in December.
