Singapore Orders Facebook to Correct User’s Social-Media Post
Authorities in this city-state directed Facebook Inc. on Friday to publish a correction to a post by a user on the social-media website, marking the first test for the tech giant since Singapore passed a sweeping law this year to combat what it sees as online falsehoods and fake news.
The government said it had issued a “targeted correction direction” to Facebook in connection with a post containing allegations that authorities had made a wrongful arrest. The information was incorrect and no such arrest had been made, the government said.
Its order requires Facebook to publish a “correction notice” in a way that users of the platform in Singapore who see the original post also see the correction....
Some troubling actions at news sources. I never used Facebook, but I am surprised that there are letting Holocaust deniers use their services Also I have used the VOA as a source of information a couple of times in the past, I was surprised by their independence, but that is going to cease in the near future, apparently❗👎

If you open the whole world to making statements on this form of media access to the public, then you will obviously get many, many wicked people posting fake news and lies.
Now the authorities must police these things and try to correct the criminal activities of some people.
At a time when church is dwindling in both numbers and doctrines, and with that the reprobate proclivity to deny morals we observe the breeding ground of iniquity and transgressions increasing everywhere.
Liberalism and political correctness has damaged society by destroying traditional moral standards and virtues which used to be taken for granted.
