the for the rest of the world, us say of the also rise starts january 18th. on the dw, the business day, the news line from valid social networking jobs mats. it ends its contracting program, chief executive mountain sucking bug says the moves aimed at restoring free expression on popular platforms like facebook and instagram. also on the program, some of the us president elect. donald trump junior, arrives in greenland on a private visit. destiny's father suggest buying the territory from denmark's to james. repeat that, it's not for sale the i'm feel welcome to the program, the social networking john match,

and it says it will scrap fact checking on facebook and instagram. this was originally put in place to stop the spread of misinformation, but c e o long stuck in buck says most content moderation will not be done by use us adopting a community based model similar to that used by x. the change box, the reverse of the policies mr. took about how long champion, despite criticism from conservatives, a said central shift, the mattress, the knowledge that the shift has been partially triggered by the election of donald trump. we've built a lot of complex systems to moderate content, but the problem with complex systems is they make mistakes. even if they accidentally censor, just one percent of posts. that's millions of people. and we've reached a point where it's just too many mistakes in too much censorship. in the recent elections also feel like a cultural tipping point towards once again, prioritizing speech to read it back to our roots in focus on reducing mistakes,
5:02 pm
simplifying our policies and restoring free expression on our platforms. let's get more on this for my correspondence in washington. janelle dom alone, welcome. janelle draws the line. what is the connection between the election of donald trump and mob sucka bugs decision to stop checking facts? so i think mark zuckerberg taken tipped his hand there, especially in that sound bite that you just played, where he called the us selection a call to roll tipping points. acknowledging that the incoming president, donald trump, has won this bit of the discourse now just uh, just to look back. uh, remember that uh, the incoming president had often criticized zocker berg and his platforms for what he perceived as anti conservative bias on those platforms. and donald trump
5:03 pm
perceived the fact checking infrastructure of those platforms to be a direct source of that bias. so what we are essentially seeing here is marks dr. burke got removing a potential sticking point in the relationship between himself and the incoming president. ahead of trump assuming office on january 20. okay. the son was like you're saying this was a political, a decision, regardless of, of what he said. we combine that with the news, of course, that the method paid a $1000000.00 to support mr. trump's in organization, that must be what it is that the mass of platforms, the trying to align themselves with, the new whitehouse. you know, i don't think the mark suffer bird has made much of a secret of his efforts to get in good with donald trump. you mentioned that that $1000000.00 donation to the inauguration after the election, also worth noting that mark soccer for adult went down to mar logo,
5:04 pm
to dine with the president. and so to speak, a case of the ring. it's also been evidence in the personnel decisions about mark soccer board has been making. the, for example, has appointed the prominent republican joel kathlyn as the chief of global affairs officer at baton now. uh, joel kaplan. i actually also appeared on fox and friends. that's a show that donald trump supposedly watches in order to explain these policy changes at match off. there is also dana white, known as a, to trump ally, and the president of the ultimate fighting championship r u. s. c. u has also been recently appointed to the board. so perhaps more than worries about aligning about metal aligning itself to the incoming leadership of the united states. i think what we're in fact seeing is evidence that that is in
5:05 pm
right, what is happening. so how will this new community notes model work or? well, i think here, uh, we can see that marks doc for bird has been inspired by the long boss now eat on most golf course is the owner of. 5 x slash twitter and himself saw a key trump surrogate. so long boss has also been relying on community notes instead of fact checkers. so basically relying on the user community to fly got pose that may be potentially misleading. so was dr. virg is doing away with this fact checking up or writers and doing the same as most relying on that instead. now of course, uh uh, dr. berg acknowledge that the removal of the fact checking in for some infrastructure might result in a certain degradation of the quality of contact and by the same quote. more bad
5:06 pm
stuff will make it on the platform. but he considers that a, we're the trade off spot in favor of free speech and watching the same way e, long mosque has said that it does. okay. satisfaction now to now dom alone in washington. well the, the president, a lex son, donald trump, at junior has arrived in greenland for what is set to be a private visit official of the site. there are no meetings planned for him. don't jr. arrived on these found this building 757, just 2 weeks after from senior. so he wants to buy agreement and make it a part of the united states. breeland's officially part of the kingdom of denmark. danish official say, that's one deal. trump will not be making a trump has once again set his eyes on greenland posting on his side to the social in monday. he said,

5:09 pm
the surveillance. and i'm 70 in the, in the optic. and especially in greenland, which has been requested by the us for a long time. but now it seems like it's, it's more than that. it says about changing the location. of course it's about natural resources and a thing, an important element is that in this said donald trump speak equal rights to suicide about its location and it's not real results is what is greenland got that? yes, the best of all those funds and statement the interest in green and it costs a strict historic interest from us 1st of all into a strategic location. and if we look at the primary enemies towards the us, at the moment we have a great power competition with china. and especially if, if russia what you sent and besides and towards the us,
