JAKARTA Meta recently revealed that they will close the independent fact checking system and switch to features popularized by platform X, namely Community Records.
Although this transition plan has just been revealed, it is reported that it has been heard to the ears of the X leader. When delivering his main speech at the 2025 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), X CEO Linda Yaccarino praised Meta's decision to emulate its features.
For Yaccarino, Community Records are much better when compared to the independent fact checking system Meta has implemented since 2016. Yaccarino looks proud because Meta realizes how good the features X has developed.
In my opinion, it's really fun if you think about Community Records that are beneficial to the world," Yaccarino said in his speech, quoted via Engadget. "It's a relief to see Mark and Meta realize that."

Meta, including its leader CEO Mark Zuckerberg, realizes that its content moderation system has deviated far from what they expected. In its official broadcast, the company emphasizes the fact that experts remain biased and have their own perspectives.
That way, the content moderation system often makes mistakes and often gets criticism. In fact, many Threads users turn to Bluesky, a platform developed by founder X, because its moderation system is considered to be very disturbing.
Zuckerberg believes that Community Records are the best choice for now. X has no history of excessive content censorship to date and the Community Records feature runs smoothly without any complaints. Reflecting on this history, Zuckerberg is also interested in following the features on X.
