Meta actively cooperates with partners to facilitate the integration and flow of information relevant to tackling harmful disinformation, via modes such as;
Cooperation across industry and civil society: Meta works collaboratively across the broader information and monetization ecosystem to enable signal-sharing and partnerships that help identify and disrupt sources of harmful misinformation and disinformation.
3PFC/EFCSN:In the EU, Meta integrates independent assessments of content quality through its cooperation with third party fact‑checkers (3PFC) certified under the European Fact‑Checking Standards Network (EFCSN) to address misinformation on Facebook and Instagram. Fact-checkers will review a piece of content and rate its accuracy. This process occurs independently from Meta and may include calling sources, consulting public data, authenticating images and videos and more.
Trusted Partners: In effort to remove misinformation or unverifiable rumours that contribute to the risk of imminent physical harm or violence, Meta works with Trusted Partners with experience in social media monitoring, an interest in learning about our Content Policies, and a commitment to keeping online communities safe
Global security research community support: Meta shares threat indicators related to Coordinated Inauthentic Behavior (CIB) networks in our dedicated
GitHub repository. EC: Meta collaborates with representatives of the European Commission (EC) as requested, to share disinformation threats. For example, we recently met with a working group, called the ‘European Council’s Horizontal Working Party on Enhancing Resilience and Countering Hybrid Threats’, which recommends actions in response to shared disinformation threats, to discuss our work against CIB networks.
