Empowering Users

Commitment 25

In order to help users of private messaging services to identify possible disinformation disseminated through such services, Relevant Signatories that provide messaging applications commit to continue to build and implement features or initiatives that empower users to think critically about information they receive and help them to determine whether it is accurate, without any weakening of encryption and with due regard to the protection of privacy.

We signed up to the following measures of this commitment

Measure 25.1 Measure 25.2

In line with this commitment, did you deploy new implementation measures (e.g. changes to your terms of service, new tools, new policies, etc)?

No, we did not introduce any new measures in the reporting period.

If yes, list these implementation measures here

N/A

Do you plan to put further implementation measures in place in the next 6 months to substantially improve the maturity of the implementation of this commitment?

No, we do not plan to put further implementation measures in place in the next 6 months.

If yes, which further implementation measures do you plan to put in place in the next 6 months?

N/A

Measure 25.1

Relevant Signatories will design and implement, or work with third-party partners to design and implement, features to facilitate users' access to authoritative information without any weakening of encryption and with due regard for the protection of privacy, third-party partners could include civil entities such as governments, fact-checkers, and other civil society organisations where appropriate. This could include (as is appropriate for each service), for example, digital literacy campaigns and programs, or third-party features to facilitate fact-checkers' or governments' use of the relevant messaging service to provide timely and accurate information to users.

QRE 25.1.1

Relevant Signatories will report on the tools, policies, partnerships, programs, and campaigns in place to meet this Measure and on their availability across Member States, including, where possible, relevant details on the civil entity and their results.

We work to empower users to think critically about information they receive and help them easily connect with accurate information. To this purpose, WhatsApp partners with:

Organisations certified by the IFCN around the world, including in the EU, to expand users’ access to fact-checking services. Because personal messages and calls on WhatsApp are secured with end-to-end encryption, only a user and the person they are communicating with can read or listen to them. That’s why our fact-checking partnerships on WhatsApp rely on user-initiated reporting. Users can flag potential misinformation to trusted fact-checking organisations by sending them a message, and fact-checking organisations can reply by sharing a fact-checking article.
Government agencies and nonprofit organisations to help make authoritative information available to users on WhatsApp.

SLI 25.1.1

When in compliance with local law, and subject to any necessary information being made available by third-parties, Relevant Signatories will to the extent possible report on use of select tools (e.g. number of claims submitted by users to fact-checkers or reach of fact checks produced from claims submitted on the platform).

Partnerships with fact-checkers: 11 fact-checking organisations in the EU operating in multiple languages are using WhatsApp products (the WhatsApp Business app and/or the WhatsApp Business Platform) to make sure that WhatsApp users have access to accurate information.

The WhatsApp Business app is an optional app and partners may choose to use this tool or not. A reduction in the number of partners using the tool does not necessarily reflect a change in the number of fact-checking partners WhatsApp has in its WhatsApp fact-checking programme.

WhatsApp has a formal fact-checking programme which utilises the WhatsApp Business Platform and has not seen a reduction during this reporting period in the number of partners.

Directory of fact-checking organisations using WhatsApp products (WhatsApp Business app and/or WhatsApp Business Platform) during the period of this report:

Country	Fact-checking organisations using WhatsApp products (WhatsApp Business app and/or WhatsApp Business Platform) during the period of this report
France	20 Minutes (French), AFP France (French), France24 (French)
Germany	CORRECTIV (German), AFP Faktencheck (German), dpa Faktencheck (German)
Italy	Pagella Politica / Facta (Italian)
Portugal	Poligrafo (Portuguese)
Spain	EFE Verifica (Spanish), Maldita (Spanish), Newtral (Spanish)

Measure 25.2

Relevant Signatories will develop tools and features that help users identify Disinformation and limit their viral propagation on their services, without any weakening of encryption and with due regard for the protection of privacy. This could include, for example, features to limit the forwarding of information across several conversations through additional friction or features making visible appropriate fact-checking labels when content from social media is disseminated over a messaging app (where possible).

QRE 25.2.1

Relevant Signatories will report on the tools and features available to limit the propagation of viral Disinformation on their services, and to empower users to think about the messages they receive.

WhatsApp provides end-to-end encryption by default for all personal messages and calls. In this context, we work to counter misinformation both by limiting virality on our platform, and by encouraging users to think about the messages that are forwarded to them. We do this by using:

Forwarding labels
Limits to messaging forwarding

WhatsApp provides a simple way to double check messages that have been forwarded many times: using the “Search on web” tool. This tool helps our users find news results or other sources of information about content they have received. This feature works by allowing users to tap a link that enables them to upload the message or image via their browser.

We continue to evolve our efforts and approaches to tackling misinformation on WhatsApp. This ongoing work is focused on making sure we have the most efficient surface impact and consistently improving reach of our partners.

SLI 25.2.1

When in compliance with local law and to the extent possible, without any weakening of encryption and with due regard to the protection of privacy, Relevant Signatories will provide a transparent estimation or evidence based research of the use and impact of tools, features, and campaigns deployed to meet Measures 25.1 and 25.2.

Tools mentioned in QRE 25.2.1 are available across the EU.

Meta’s Transparency Reports, which assess the implementation of the Code’s commitments, are maintained in the Transparency Centre repository. See the Transparency Centre reports here.

Measure 35.4

In crisis situations, Signatories use the Transparency Centre to publish information regarding the specific mitigation actions taken related to the crisis.

No formal crisis situation, as defined under Article 36 of the DSA or as declared by the European Commission, occurred during the current reporting period that would trigger the application of Measure 35.4.

Meta maintains documented Crisis Response Protocols and Assessments that would be activated in the event a crisis is declared. These protocols enable Meta to identify and assess whether external events impacting the functioning and use of its services are significantly contributing to a serious threat, and to publish information regarding specific mitigation actions taken on the Transparency Centre as required.

Measure 35.5

Signatories ensure that the Transparency Centre is built with state-of-the-art technology, is user-friendly, and that the relevant information is easily searchable (including per Commitment and Measure). Users of the Transparency Centre will be able to easily track changes in Signatories' policies and actions.

Meta and other signatories equally co-fund the ongoing operation of the Transparency Centre website, which is managed by VOST Europe in the role of a developer, ensuring the Centre is built with state-of-the-art technology and user friendliness. The layout designed by the developer allows for easy searchability, as well as straightforward tracking of changes.

Measure 35.6

The Transparency Centre will enable users to easily access and understand the Service Level Indicators and Qualitative Reporting Elements tied to each Commitment and Measure of the Code for each service, including Member State breakdowns, in a standardised and searchable way. The Transparency Centre should also enable users to easily access and understand Structural Indicators for each Signatory.

Meta’s bi-annual Transparency Reports, published on the Transparency Centre, list Service Level Indicators (SLIs) and Qualitative Reporting Elements (QREs) tied to each commitment and measure for Facebook and Instagram, including Member State breakdowns in a standardised and searchable format.

In addition, Meta supported the publication of pilot Structural Indicators by TrustLab, produced in collaboration with EDMO, ERGA, Avaaz, and the European Commission as part of the Rapid Response System (RRS). These Structural Indicators are accessible via the Transparency Centre, enabling users to understand compliance patterns across signatories. Meta continues to update Structural Indicator measurements aligned with its bi-annual reporting periods.
