The users of the social network made it possible to record doubtful news, to halt the spread of incorrect information. With all of this control will not remove such news, and only take them "note".
In Facebook there was an opportunity to put specialized boxes that demonstrate what news, considering the opinion of users, are considered to be "intentionally false or phony". When many users reports false messages or eliminates it, algorithms, social networks automatically remove the news from the news feeds of users.
Completely remove such news social network will not, because the algorithms still cannot authenticate each news, but the limitation in viewing should theoretically to protect users from fakes.
As noted by the users themselves, this can be used by people who simply did not like some news, tells Mashable. They'll just mark it in the news as "spam" so that it does not appear in the ribbon. Exactly how the creators will compete against similar abuses, until set.
The function itself does not lie on the surface as the button "Like" or "Share", and is located in an unremarkable menu in the corner news. Apparently it should be fenced from abuse, because not all users will know that news can be marked as "spam".
