Facebook reduces political content on platform

Facebook is planning to reduce political content that surfaces in time. The movement comes after testing conducted in the US, Canada, Brazil and Indonesia earlier this year.

The company also plans to test Costa Rica, Sweden, Spain, and Ireland. Facebook says the changes come after the feedback given by the community.

The changes are also expected to reduce dezinformation on Facebook. On the other hand, political subjects must reconsider their strategies to achieve voters.

It can also experience a fatal blow to the media, especially those focused on political developments given the high level of traffic Facebook sends to websites.

However, the changes are expected to make Facebook less irritating and disturbing for users. Political debates on social networks are heated up quickly.

But in November last year Facebook claimed only 6% of users see political content. / PCWorld Albanian
