Mark Zuckerbergs Meta makeover: MAGA grandpa is about to get much worse
Mark Zuckerbergs decision to ditch factcheckers on Facebook and prioritise free speech weeks before Trump returns to power was condemned on Tuesday as a major step back for public discourse.
The Meta founder announced multiple changes to his platforms including Facebook and Instagram in an attempt to dramatically reduce the amount of censorship.
In a statement on Tuesday he said that, starting in the US, independent factcheckers would be replaced in the US by a system of community notes similar to that used on X, Elon Musks social media platform, which relies on users to add caveats and context to contentious posts.
Content moderation teams would also be moved from California to Texas where there is less concern about the bias of our teams, said Zuckerberg in a five-minute video statement that Nina Jankowicz, a former US government official tasked with fighting disinformation, described as a full bending of the knee to Trump.
Changes to the way Meta filtered content would also mean we are going to catch less bad stuff while still taking seriously a lot of legitimately bad stuff out there, drugs, terrorism, child exploitation, Zuckerberg said.
He said factcheckers were too politically biased ? an allegation strongly denied by factchecking organisations and said Meta would get rid of a bunch of restrictions on topics like immigration and gender that are just out of touch with mainstream discourse
The 40-year-old billionaire said the shift was in response to the US presidential elections, which he labelled a cultural tipping point towards, once again, prioritising speech
