Mark Zuckerberg has shifted Meta’s focus to reducing political content across its platforms like Facebook and Instagram, significantly limiting political engagement as the U.S. election approaches.
In an effort to be neutral and avoid taking sides, Zuckerberg has dismantled the election integrity team and lessened the company's active participation in political issues.
This pivot marks a stark contrast to the previous approach where Facebook aimed to be at the forefront of election influence, as described by former employee Katie Harbath.
Zuckerberg's decision to remove transparency tools signals a retreat from accountability in monitoring political content, raising concerns about the spread of misinformation.
