  • The change reflects a "cultural tipping point" with a focus on prioritizing speech, especially ahead of upcoming elections.
  • Meta's initial fact-checking initiative began in 2016 after backlash over false claims during the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
  • The program had expanded to partner with nearly 100 organizations and offered services in over 60 languages.
  • This shift affects billions of users across Facebook, Instagram, and Threads.
