During the last elections in the United States, Facebook became an important source of fake news, which supposedly could have influenced the electoral results. To try to improve its image, Mark Zuckerberg's company will modify the way news is published on the social network to prevent news of dubious origin from creeping in again. And again for it, will restart the copy machine to the platform who years ago tried to buy in every possible way without success. We are talking about Snapchat.
As we can read in Business Insider, Facebook will launch a new feature called Collections. This new section will show us the content of the media previously selected by the company, to avoid once again making a fool of yourself by publishing false news. For now, and according to sources related to the project, Facebook has already started to make the first contacts with companies They may be interested, but at the moment it is not clear when the Cupertino guys plan to launch this new feature.
Thus, Facebook would improve relationships with major publishers, publishers who could only show their information in a relevant way if they got a large number of likes or if it was shared by a large number of people. In addition, in this way it is ensured that from that moment on, it will not make a fool of itself by publishing false news, a fact that also affected Google, which has taken another way to prevent false news from making its August.
The new content feature on Snapchat, where only information from a selected group of media is published, has once again been the source of inspiration for Mark Zuckerberg's employees. It is clear that it did not sit well with Zuckerberg not having been able to buy Snapchat at the time to go from the different and large offers he made to the owners.
