Our approach to elections
IN-UPDATE NOB 27, 2023
Meta invests a huge amount of effort and resources to protect elections online — not just during election periods but at all times.
We have around 40,000 people working on safety and security for global elections, with more than $20 billion invested in teams and technology in this area since 2016.
Preventing interference
- We stop millions of fake accounts every day before they are even created.
- Our security teams investigate and take down coordinated networks of accounts, Pages, and groups that try to manipulate public debate.
- We partner with governments, law enforcement agencies, nonprofits, civil rights groups, and other tech companies to stop emerging threats.
Fighting misinformation
- We work with nearly 100 partners across 60 languages to fact-check what people post and provide context on misleading content.
- We remove content that attempts to interfere with voting, such as incorrect voting information, and we remove calls for electoral violence.
- We reduce the distribution of false news about elections so fewer people see it.
Increasing transparency
- We require all political advertisers to verify their identify through an authorization process before they can buy ads.
- We add “Paid for by” disclaimers to political and issue ads, and provide the owner and locations for political Pages and Groups.
- We provide an Ads Library—a searchable database of all political and issue ads from the last 7 years—so you can see exactly what candidates are saying, who they’re targeting, and who paid for it.
Empowering people to vote
- On Facebook and Instagram, through in-app notifications, we’re continuing to connect people with details about voter registration and elections.
- Our Voting Information Center continues to be live on Facebook.
