Meta to End Fact-Checking Program on Facebook Ahead of Trump Term: Live Updates
The social networking giant will stop using third-party fact-checkers on Facebook, Threads and Instagram and instead rely on users to add notes to posts. It is likely to please President-elect Trump and his allies.
Meta knows they don’t have enough CPUs and memory to run fact checkers on all the Trump supporters.
Probably more that sending people down fascist conspirasist rabbit holes makes it easy to put ads in front of eyeballs

And fund Ukraine whilst they are at it. We need to distance ourselves from USA as it's turned into a bigoted, fascist shithole.
Edited for spelling.
