Is Facebook getting better at detecting politically-motivated misinformation networks, or are more groups looking to use the social media platform s reach to influence people, as a result of various, highly publicized campaigns?
There s no way to know for sure, but what we do know is that Facebook removed a record number of manipulative networks in the month of December, according to data in the latest edition of its Coordinated Inauthentic Behavior report.
As explained by Facebook: In December, we removed 17 networks of accounts, Pages and Groups, the most we’ve removed in any one month. We took down deceptive campaigns from nearly every continent and shared information about our findings with law enforcement, policymakers and industry partners.
