Update: “Meta has now removed the label and says it was a ‘false positive’ in their system.”
The false positives only seem to go in one direction and get corrected only after the damage is done.
More: “Unlike Community Notes on 𝕏, Meta’s ‘Fact Checkers’ are a small group of hand selected corporate media journalists, labels dramatically reduce the distribution of content and having them applied to your posts can destroy your entire page.”
Advantage: Elon Musk’s X.
