"On Thursday, Meta’s Oversight Board, a quasi-independent body that reviews the social media giant’s moderation practices, ruled that “Community Notes” are not a proper substitute for its fact-checking program.

In a new “policy advisory opinion,” the Board expressed concerns about how effective Community Notes would be in a litany of circumstances, “including in repressive human rights regimes, in particular electoral contexts and in ongoing crisis and conflict situations.” Overall, the Board warned that expanding Community Notes outside the U.S. could “pose significant human rights risks and contribute to tangible harms that Meta has a responsibility to avoid or remedy.”

In January 2025, Meta announced it was getting rid of its fact-checking program in the U.S. Launched a decade ago, the program relied on a network of third-party fact-checkers to verify content and flag disinformation. These partnerships with news and civil society organizations have been essential to the platform’s moderation practices on Meta, Instagram, and Threads."

Asking @scottjenson about if #CommunityNotes is something being considered for the future?

Meta's expanding Community Notes globally, but they're *only* asking the Oversight Board for advice on which countries to *omit*.

Not, you know, whether crowd-sourced fact-checking is actually working (only 6% of notes published in the US so far). Seems their priorities are... unique. What could possibly go wrong?
