Meta is set to roll out its 'community notes' system on March 18, 2025, as a part of a significant shift from traditional fact-checking. The initiative, inspired by Elon Musk's model on X (formerly Twitter), allows contributors to write and rate notes to enhance the social media platforms' credibility. With 200,000 individuals signed up to contribute, testing will precede public note publication to ensure a variety of perspectives are represented, aligning with Meta's effort to promote free expression and combat misinformation in a collaborative manner.
Meta's new "community notes" system launches March 18, 2025, replacing third-party fact-checkers with a contributor-driven rating model similar to Twitter's initiative.
With 200,000 individuals on the waitlist to become Community Notes contributors, the process will involve gradual admission and testing before any public notes are released.
Zuckerberg aims to enhance free expression and address misinformation by leveraging an open-source algorithm for note rating, which encourages diverse viewpoints in the publishing process.
