Meta, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram and more, is moving to a community notes program over third-party fact-checkers. As part of its changes, Meta is following the lead of Elon Musk's X and moving trust and safety teams from California to Texas and other U.

Meta — whose platforms boast over 3 billion users worldwide — did not offer specifics on where in the state it plans to move the team.

Meta is eliminating fact-checkers in a move founder Mark Zuckerberg said will make free speech a priority on its social media platforms — including Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp — and align the multinational tech giant with a political tilt to the right with the recent election of Donald Trump.
