    Good. You’re not supposed to go to Facebook to be informed.

      What do you mean? The same people who get “news” from Facebook will still get “news” from Facebook. It will just no longer involve any actual media companies. Think blogger, pseudo-news and AI generated content - fake news gonna fake.

          No American or international news either, says Meta

          Canadians will no longer be able to view or post news content on Facebook or Instagram. News outlets, including international ones, will start having their content blocked on those platforms

            Well that’s a bit of a relief at least

        And they’ll have to go to actual sources to fact check.

          Bold of you to assume that fact checking is even in the repertoire of the chud brained

          My point is with this legislation we effectively removed news outlets from the “source pool”, and all the remaining sources you can rely on Facebook is the questionable ones.

      That’s right, you’re supposed to go down to the local coffee shop to find out what is going on.
