Last month, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram and Threads said it would end a fact-checking program that had sought to remove medical misinformation and other spurious content online.

The website formerly known as Twitter also ended its own fact-checking program when it was purchased and rebranded as X by owner Elon Musk in 2022.
