TikTok has introduced a crowdsourced fact-checking feature called Footnotes in the U.S., allowing users to add context to videos and vote on comments. This initiative aligns with a trend among social media platforms like X and Meta to enhance community-based fact-checking. Experts suggest that while crowdsourcing can yield accurate evaluations, challenges remain in visibility and echo chambers. TikTok's approach differs by requiring sources for notes, unlike X. The effectiveness of community notes could improve through gamification, and collaboration with professional fact-checkers is essential for better information integrity. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
