Facebook Says It’s Cool With Lies in Political Ads for 2020

Despite pressure to change its policy on false or misleading political advertisements, Facebook on Thursday announced that it will largely maintain the status quo ahead of the 2020 election. The company will give users “more controls” over the type and amount of ads they see, it said in a

, but will refrain from banning ads entirely or policing their content, as critics have called for. “In the absence of regulation, Facebook and other companies are left to design their own policies,”, Facebook’s director of product management, wrote in the post. “We have based ours on the principle that people should be able to hear from those who wish to lead them, warts and all, and that what they say should be scrutinized and debated in public.

I refuse to believe Americans will choose Trump a second time 😟

This is how Zuckerberg is helping Trump win!

It serves their purpose to support those fake ads!! 🐷

Media_On_Media Zuckerberg needs to abandon the 'Hail Caesar' hair. The guy is a total ass.

No shame to his game.

Great example of money talks. Facebook has zero corporate social responsibility on this. Employees should walk in public with paper bags over their heads.

Let's end our relationship with fb
