From ReclaimTheNet.org….
Facebook has announced new rules surrounding groups, including putting members who repeatedly violate its policies on probation and limiting the reach of “problematic” groups. The rules are part of the platform’s continued efforts to tackle “misinformation” and harmful content.
The group feature on Facebook allows people with common interests to come together and discuss issues. However, left to their own devices, Facebook suggests that groups have become one of the greatest tools in spreading “misinformation” and so it wants to get involved in policing what people talk about.
Group members have common interests; therefore no one is going to flag content bringing it to the attention of Facebook’s content moderators.
