Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg announced Tuesday morning that his social media company would stop using fact-checkers and instead embrace community notes, a feature popularized by Elon Musk’s X, to correct mistakes. 

“We’re going to get back to our roots and focus on reducing mistakes, simplifying our policies, and restoring free expression on our platforms,” Zuckerberg said in a video posted to Facebook, the social media platform he founded in 2004. “More specifically, here’s what we’re going to do. First, we’re going to get rid of fact-checkers and replace them with community notes similar to X, starting in the U.S.”
