What about all the "independent" "non-affiliated" groups who are absolutely tied to a political party? How do you adjudicate those edge cases? It's the edge cases, IMO, that are the real bear here.
- gorgoiler 7y agoIf they are absolutely tied to a political party, then they would count towards the quota. If they claim not to have a link then it becomes Facebook’s job to determine if there is one, which seems a lot more tractable than determining if a fact is true or false. Easy at least when the message is “don’t vote for Bob!”, than when it is “we don’t see any harm in GMO wheat”. Unattributed attack ads are pretty obvious but it’s harder to tie issue ads to the party they benefit.
