        the caveat (and there's always a caveat) is that they have come up with a list of claims determined by the WHO that will qualify in takedowns. all of that and more here: https://www.facebook.com/help/230764881494641 …

        one of the criticisms FB has frequently faced is allowing for loopholes in its policies which allow for a shift in tactics guess we watch and see what happens here.

        Last note: this policy change was specifically caused by one of the FB Oversight Board rulings last month, which overturned a previous FB positionhttps://about.fb.com/news/2021/01/responding-to-the-oversight-boards-first-decisions/ …

        What about comments with COVID misinformation on posts? Are those subject to removal, too? That's where a lot of the misinfo ends up.

        This is a great point. The announcement is specifically about posts, but I'd guess in terms of numbers, there are FAR more comments with misinformation than posts.

        The best thing that the human race could do is collectively come off social and digital media. It will never happen but our ‘data’ is so valuable to these giants. Without it, us and our data .. they have nothing

        I have been reporting anti-vaxxing Facebook groups and their "stories" for months... One of the main sites I have been reporting, Ohio Advocates for Medical Freedom is still up and running along with their COVID Vaccine misinformation.
