Facebook has released a tool to let you see if you've ever been tricked by Russian propaganda
There’s been a lot of talk over the last year about Facebook, #FakeNews, and attempts by the Russian government to influence the 2016 election by applying the latter to the former en masse. We all like to assume that getting tricked by obvious propaganda is something that only happens to other people, of course, but how can we be sure? Well, Facebook—as part of its ongoing efforts to dig itself out of the credibility minefield it’s found itself in of late—has just released a new tool, designed to let you know if you’ve ever been just another well-meaning Russian dupe.
