Technology News - Facebook begins testing ways to combat fake news Read more Technology News Here --> http://digitaltechnologynews.com Facebook is finally starting to act on fake news, announcing today a number of updates it's testing to combat the spread of misinformation. The social network is starting off by targeting the worst of the worst, posts that are blatantly false and generated for spammers' own gain, writes Adam Mosseri, the vice president who oversees Facebook's News Feed, in a blog post. First, it's turning to Facebook users, testing a way for the community to flag a post they believe is a hoax. After clicking the upper right hand corner of a post, some users will see the option to select It's a fake news story as the reason they're singling it out for attention. Facebook is also launching a program to utilize third-party fact checking organizations. It will send suspicious stories to the fact checkers, and if they decide it's fake, the post will be flagged as disputed. A link to an article explaining why the post is under scrutiny will be included. Though users can still share disputed stories, these may be pushed down lower in the News Feed. Even more significantly, a warning will pop up when users go to share the story. Flagged stories will also be banned from being promoted and turned into ads, Mosseri says. The steps don't stop there. Facebook is also looking into incorporating signals that a story is fake into how it ranks articles, such as people not sharing an article after they've read it, which could be a sign they found it misleading. Finally, Facebook is going to hit spammers where it hurts: their wallets. Because hoaxers make money when they pose as legit news organizations and direct users to their ad-filled sites, Facebook is getting rid of the ability to spoof domains. It will also look at publisher sites to see where policy enforcement may be needed. Even though these are just tests, it's a change of course for Facebook, which has been accused of sticking its head under the sand when it comes to its role as a source (and often, the source) of information. While it doesn't want to become the arbiter of truth, as Mosseri writes, Facebook is at least recognizing that, with over a billion users, it has to do something to stem the tide of hoaxes. Whether all or none of these tests become features that every user has access to remains to be seen, but this is a clear sign Facebook is starting to take fake news seriously.
