The photo-sharing app will begin
determining the authenticity of an image using “a combination of feedback from
our community and technology.” After that, the image will be passed on to
third-party independent fact-checkers, and if they determine that the image has
been altered, a “False Information” warning message will be added to the post.
In a statement, a spokesperson for
Facebook said the images won't be totally hidden but will be labelled when a
fact-checker has rated it. The spokesperson also added that the photoshopped
images will not be removed, but will only be hidden from Instagram’s Explore
and Hashtag pages and automatically flagged in future posts.
“We don’t hide content
because it’s photoshopped, we apply a label when a fact-checker has rated it.
Upon review from the fact-checker, they changed the rating, so it is no longer
being labelled as false on Instagram and Facebook.”
