The company plans to cut off news access on Facebook and Instagram in Canada. If Australia is any guide, the blackout likely will be short-lived, columnist Anita Ramaswamy writes.

No more disinformation articles that conform to the biases of various family members being shoved into the feed.

Faux news and Breitbart will still be there. Just not the mainstream Canadian news sources.

Not that it changes anything for me, I nuked facebook years ago.

The misinformation and disinformation is not for the informed … it’s for the ignorant and lazy

When you are aware of the blatant disinformation and never ending conspiracy theories and far out ideologies … you stay away from it all

When you are unaware or just don’t care and just enjoy living in your own deluded reality … you drown yourself in the disinformation
