One Meta employee wrote on the Workplace chat forum that they were "extremely concerned" about the move, which they attribute as Meta "sending a bigger, stronger message to people that facts no longer matter, and conflating that with a victory for free speech."
Another employee wrote that "simply absolving ourselves from the duty to at least try to create a safe and respective platform is a really sad direction to take," expressing worries over the implications of this policy change.
Some employees praised the change, pointing out that adopting the "Community Notes" model used by Elon Musk's X has "proven to be a much better representation of the ground truth."
Another employee suggested that the company "provide an accounting of the worst outcomes of the early years" which initially pushed management to hire third-party fact-checkers and whether the new policies would prevent that type of fallout.
