LatamChequea urges Meta to keep independent fact-checking in Latin America

LatamChequea, a Latin American fact-checking network, has publicly asked Meta not to replace independent verification with Community Notes in the region, following Meta's January 2025 decision to end the verifier program in the US. The request signals potential regulatory or reputational pressure on Meta in Latin America, but the outcome remains uncertain. This matters because it could affect information integrity and platform policy in the region.
