Summary
Mark Zuckerberg ended Meta’s factchecking program on Facebook and Instagram, replacing it with user-submitted “Community Notes,” similar to Twitter.
The move is part of a broader shift to the political right, aligning with Donald Trump’s incoming administration.
Zuckerberg criticized factcheckers as “politically biased” and promised fewer “censorship mistakes.”
Meta has also elevated conservatives to key roles and moved content moderation operations from California to Texas, mirroring Elon Musk’s strategies.
While the changes may alienate liberals and some advertisers, analysts expect minimal financial impact on Meta.
Hmmm, is there a way to just quit and leave an access to messenger (preferably by non Facebook app?) I have account since 2006 and want to kill it, the only thing that keeps me is still a few of people that I don’t have other ways to contact.
Edit: not sure if Facebook got confused (due to visiting Europe), but on my family member messenger it showed option to separate Facebook account with messenger due to European regulations. I wish it have me that option.
I’m very surprised but this does seem possible: https://www.facebook.com/help/messenger-app/1526848634305688/
However if possible I think it would be good to try convincing your friends to switch to a more secure chat app such as Signal.
