Facebook's action in fake news

in #technology7 years ago

Facebook will also add content that has doubts about the data. The newest step taken to prevent false news is the world's largest social media.

As part of the false news-sharing strategy, Facebook wants users to scroll into news feeds, and they will not get suspicious reports. But the reports will not be removed completely. Through this, social media can "stand between censorship and sensitivity" at one place.


On Saturday, TechCrunch's report said that, if the third-party fact-makers of social media identify any report as compliant, then the Facebook news feed will reduce the range of links showing the report.


A spokesman for the Social Giant said, "We reduce the attributes of reading the reports that have been identified as false in fact-check."


To prevent fear of false news, Facebook launched red alert label before this. But as a result some users send more false reports more aggressively, which at one point forced the social media to withdraw this feature - it is said in the IANS report.


Then, with the right idea about the news of the Facebook users, news related to the news of the news started from the reliable sources called 'related articles' related to the related articles.


Facebook is now using machine learning to verify the newly published reports and to indicate they have false information.
