Facebook will have a more aggressive policy for COVID-19

Facebook will fight COVID-19 misinformation more directly by sending alerts to users who like, share or comment on a removed post with misinformation.

Facebook will send alerts directly to users who like, share or comment on COVID-19 posts that violate the company's terms of service.

This new setup will work like this: if one has interacted with a post that will be removed, Facebook sends a notification to the user telling them that the post has been removed. If the user clicks on the notification, they will be taken to a destination with one screenshot of the post and a brief explanation of why it was removed. The landing page will also include links to educational websites about COVID-19, and will prompt him not to follow the group that posted it.

This regulation is an extension of Facebook's previous efforts to fight misinformation. Prior to this, the company displayed a in the news feed, urging users who had engaged with content that had been removed to "help their friends and family by avoiding false information about Covid-19".

Facebook's modified approach comes almost a year after the pandemic began. Notifications will not be sent to deleted posts.

  1. Do we see any baths "stay home" soon?

    And I do not ask about havale but because the style of the text, while it had the potential to lead the reader's thought to: "interventions in the mind", tries to lead to: I am a hare for what comes to you.

    I do not hide that for a long time Jimako has gathered, observing. And maybe that is the reason for not sending various.

    George, I remind you that the marriage that was attempted a few years ago with "somethingnews" did not have the desired result. And the split brought good results. So, do you have to think about certain issues, before changing anything that had a target group for those who were not interested in what the "stevzobsphone" records falling from space?

    Good morning to those of us who are observant to those we read and "insomnia", but only to make fun of the endless neophile's stupidity of "anonymous commentators".

    • the target group does not exist, it would exist if we tried to put in the bank in addition to paying the server, We continue in bulk on the wave even if they say that we are biased or that we have an opinion. The view whether it exists has a place and value, even if it provokes controversy
