💨 Abstract

Meta, owned by Facebook, is replacing third-party fact-checking programs in the US with "community notes", allowing users to flag inaccuracies or provide context. The move is criticized by experts who worry it could lead to an increase in misinformation and disinformation on the platform, with 3.27 billion people using at least one of its apps daily. The implications for India's upcoming elections remain unclear.
