Instagram and Threads, crackdown on political content. Users will be able to choose whether or not to limit suggested posts about political figures they do not follow.
Instead, you will continue to view the contents of politicians already followed, always based on the sorting of the Meta algorithm. The move is just the latest in Meta trying to discourage users from discussing topics it considers potentially problematic. The company already blocks "sensitive" words from search results, including terms related to vaccines and Covid. It remains to be understood how social networks will consider "political" the posts of users not directly involved in the public debate.
