The article announces the end of the third-party fact-checking program on Facebook, Instagram, and Threads in the U.S. Users will see Community Notes, which are written and rated by community members, instead of traditional fact-check labels. This shift emphasizes a more community-focused approach to content evaluation. The implementation will proceed gradually as the company tests its algorithm and internal systems, aiming to enhance user engagement and reliability of information shared across these platforms.
Starting today, we're ending our third-party fact checking program in the United States, and Community Notes will start to appear on Facebook, Instagram and Threads.
This means that we will no longer show new fact check labels on content in the United States. Instead, notes, written and rated by the growing community of contributors, will be published gradually.
