"Most of the press coverage focused on Meta ending its fact-checking partnerships, but I think that misses the real harm. The fact-checking program was never as robust as it needed to be, and there are multiple examples of fact-checkers being overruled due to political pressure from the Right.
The bigger story, at least in my mind, is that Meta’s policy changes now make it easier to target marginalized groups with harassment."
