Notes
Mark Zuckerberg, CEO and major stockholder in Meta, attended Donald Trump's 2025 inauguration. Around the same time, he announced that Facebook would pull back from fact-checking, at least in the US. Facebook is a major channel for the propagation of hard-right propaganda, conspiracy theories, anti-vax and other health misinformation.
