Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, has announced the termination of its collaboration with fact-checkers in the U.S. The change, inspired by Elon Musk’s platform X, aims to simplify content moderation and restore free speech on its platforms. CEO Mark Zuckerberg cited a cultural shift following the recent U.S. presidential elections as a reason for the overhaul, which includes plans to ease restrictions on various topics. The strategy also involves significant changes in the leadership, appointing Joel Kaplan as the new head of policy.
