Trump allies, largely unconstrained by Facebook’s rules against repeated falsehoods, cement pre-election dominance
From a pro-Trump super PAC to the president’s eldest son,
conservatives have blown past Facebook’s fact-checking guardrails,
with few consequences.

A Twitter board committee reviewing the social network's leadership and management structure concluded that Chief Executive Officer Jack Dorsey should maintain his role at the helm of the company.
From a report:The committee was asked to formally review Twitter's leadership as part of an agreement in March with activist investor Elliott Management and private equity firm Silver Lake, which took stakes in the San Francisco-based company earlier this year. The independent board panel, which included representatives from Elliott and Silver Lake, concluded that the current management structure is sufficient, and the full board accepted that recommendation, according to a company filing on Monday.
"The committee expressed its confidence in management and recommended that the current structure remain in place," the filing reads. "The board will continue to evaluate company and management performance according to a range of factors, including the company's operating plan and established milestones."

Facebook Groups that spread misinfo will now face probation and forced moderation
While the election may have now been called for Joe Biden, our misinformation nightmare is far from over.
As unsubstantiated pro-Trump conspiracies about election fraud continue to spread on the internet, Facebook is taking further action with Facebook Groups, a feature that is often weaponized by misinformation spreaders.
According to Facebook, the social networking company will now put certain problematic Facebook Groups in “probation” periods. During this 60-day timeframe, all posts to these groups must be manually approved by a group’s administrators or moderators.
A group will be placed in this probationary state if the company finds that many of its posts are violating its community standards policies. There will be no appeals process for the probation period. All groups, whether public or private, are subject to probation.
If policy violation problems continue to persist within these groups during the probationary period, Facebook will ban the group.
Facebook previously announced a version of this new Groups policy when it started to clean up Facebook Groups in September. The updated policy appears to include a longer probation period. The company had also started closing groups that no longer had moderators in place, and stopped recommending health-related groups in order to curb coronavirus misinformation.

But, does it hurt?
https://www.theverge.com/2020/11/6/2...-discord-trumpThe Stop the Steal Facebook group, which launched on Wednesday, was filled with similar election misinformation about Democrats rigging the vote. It was organized by Republican operatives and had ties to the tea party, according to Mother Jones. The group grew to over 300,000 members in less than 48 hours — only to be banned by Facebook once moderators caught on. Over that short period, the group became a central hub for election misinformation, leaving users to look for new places to organize in the wake of the ban.
Facebook and TikTok have also moved to block hashtags that were used to spread election conspiracy theories on Thursday, like #StoptheSteal. Twitter told The Verge that it was “proactively” monitoring them. Big Tech’s efforts to curb voting misinformation have led users to organize on different platforms. On YouTube, One American News Network (OANN) posted videos declaring that “Trump won” the election, which YouTube limited somewhat but did not block outright.
