Facebook is testing context button to curb spread of fake news
Facebook takes a step to cut down on fake news.
In an attempt to help identify the stories to trust, read and share on the News Feed, the social networking giant Facebook is testing a new feature that will let users access the additional information about the origin of the stories.
Facebook is testing a context button that will provide additional information about a news article across the network and other sources in order to identify if the same is authentic. In case it is a false news, then the same will be removed. This move is important in the wake of fake information such as Las Vegas shooting where Twitter, Facebook, and Google failed to stop the spreading of fake news.
