Meta is ending its fact-checking program in favor of a ‘community notes’ system similar to X

CEO Mark Zuckerberg stated that expert fact-checkers had biases and caused distrust, leading to the changes in content management.

The company plans to lift restrictions on certain topics and focus on illegal activities like terrorism and child exploitation.

Meta’s Oversight Board welcomed the changes, aiming for a more effective and speech-friendly approach to content moderation.
