Facebook reveals that it's measuring you on a scale of 'trustworthiness' in its fight against fake news :-

Every major social networking platform seems to be struggling to fight fake news these days. Twitter is mowing through millions of account deletions, and YouTube recently pledged $25 million in part to introduce tools to users to identify bad information. But you can argue that Facebook has fought the most visible battles, right down to its CEO Mark Zuckerberg getting grilled by Congress on live TV show.

With over 2.2 billion monthly active users, Facebook has an enormous attack surface with wide-ranging influence. And in the wake of the Cambridge Analytic scandal, it has yet to fully escape intense media coverage of its war on fake news.
One way to deal with this harsh limelight is to pull back the curtain a little, and now the Washington Post has revealed that Facebook has been hard at work on a trustworthiness measurement for its actual users, rather than just for the content that its users share. This is good decision for Facebook.
