SS: Facebook’s parent company will make changes to its fact-checking to more closely resemble the site formerly known as Twitter.
Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced Tuesday morning that content moderation and other restrictions on speech would be lifted across Facebook, Instagram and other platforms as Donald Trump returns to the White House, reported Fox News.
“We’re going to get back to our roots and focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our policies and restoring free expression on our platforms,” Zuckerberg said in a video posted Tuesday morning. “More specifically, we’re going to get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with Community Notes similar to X, starting in the U.S.”

Odd how they didn’t decide to do this BEFORE the election.
I’m guessing Zuck doesn’t relish the idea of being dragged in front of Congress to ‘splain himself for his platform’s blatant policy of election interference. . .AGAIN.
Not that it did much good last time.
