In 2020, Twitter had announced that it will be launching a new Birdwatch feature, and now, in 2021, after the US Presidential Election and the inauguration of the new president, the company has finally launched it. However, it is currently available for a small group of 1000 people in the pilot program.
This feature allows these members of the pilot program to fact-check tweets and add their own information to the notes that they find misleading or misinforming. This community-driven approach is expected to derive positive results in controlling the spread of misinformation and content that can lead other people astray in one way or the other. The notes that these people will add are expected to add more context to the tweets, and this is eventually going to help people differentiate between what is true and what is a lie.
