As Threads’ user base expands and major elections loom on the horizon, including the 2024 U.S. Presidential Election, Meta has decided to invite the third-party fact-checking partners that have been working with Instagram and Facebook to review and rate false content on the Threads app in the coming year, reports MediaDailyNews.

“Currently, when a fact-checker rates a piece of content as false on Facebook or Instagram, we extend that fact-check rating to near-identical content on Threads, but fact-checkers cannot rate Threads content on its own,” the company wrote in a blog post.

With a slew of new features and over 100 million users, continues MediaDailyNews, “Threads’ popularity is on the rise. The reality of gaining more users, however, comes with added risks — especially in the form of misinformation.

“To help combat the spread of false narratives on Threads, which are expected to skyrocket throughout the upcoming election cycle, and duplicate posts across its family of apps, Meta is taking preparatory precautions.“
