And they won’t stop until it turns into Conservapedia. Can’t have all those inconvenient facts contradicting the fascist regime or anything. You’ll have your firehose of misinformation and you’ll like it. Seriously, I could see January 6th becoming a federal holiday down the line. They’ll call it Patriot Day or something.

Fortunately, you apparently can download a compressed version of all of Wikipedia for ~25GB.

this isn’t just dropping fact-checking. per the article:

Beyond the end of the facet-checking program, Zuckerberg said the company will be eliminating some content policies around hot-button issues including immigration and gender, and refocus the company’s automated moderation systems on what he called “high severity violations” and rely on users to report other violations.

Facebook will also be moving its trust and safety and content moderation team from California to Texas.

This is full bore capitulation to fascism, as capital will always do. soon, zuckerberg’s social media sites will be indistinguishable from musk’s x. everybody needs to defederate from threads if they haven’t already.
