Meta has officially announced the discontinuation of its fact-checking program in the U.S., effective Monday. This policy shift aligns with recent changes in content moderation rules and comes shortly after President Trump's inauguration, which CEO Mark Zuckerberg attended. Meta plans to implement a community-driven moderation model, similar to Elon Musk's X platform, where users will help identify misleading content. Critics express concern that this move could lead to a rise in false information, particularly affecting marginalized groups. The company emphasizes prioritizing free speech while rolling back restrictions on sensitive topics.
