Meta’s fact-checking changes stoke disinformation concerns
“Four years ago this week, Facebook banned Donald Trump for inciting a violent insurrection that resulted in the deaths of 5 people and disrupted our democracy,” Nicole Gill, the co-founder and executive director of tech advocacy group Accountable Tech said of the announcement last week.
Trump vilified tech giants. Now they’re giving him millions.
“These companies have flourished because of a lack of regulation, and these leaders are now making choices that can insulate them down the road,” said Nicole Gill, director of Accountable Tech. She compared Zuckerberg to a school kid who befriends the class bully: “He is willing to do whatever he thinks it will take to stay afloat.”
