This is absurd for a litany of reasons. First, they allow a constant flow of political “misinformation,” but draw the line at voting? That makes no sense. Second, who determines what “misinformation” is? Clearly Facebook has a bias and is not capable of dispassionately enforcing its own bias rules. Third, people should be informed enough to differentiate between false and real information on their own and if they aren’t, it’s not Facebook’s responsibility. They treat adults like infants. At least they do when they are supposedly attempting to stop “fake news.” At Moptu we treat our users like adults. We believe in personal responsibility.
