To Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook CEO:

As global citizens, we call on you to immediately set up effective global systems to delete fake accounts, identify and take down hateful or false content fast, and prioritise content from trustworthy sources. Facebook is undermining our democracies. It’s up to you to stop this danger.

Facebook: Clean up fake news!
During the last election a million US voters shared a Facebook story saying the Pope endorsed Trump for President. Only one problem -- it was a lie!

We desperately need a way to fix this problem -- and we just might have it.

Facebook is the world's largest news source, so it's become the hotbed of fake accounts spreading fake news. Their own policy demands they delete them -- but they've got little incentive, as they make millions from fake news peddlers.

We can change the equation. Ultimately Facebook's whole business is us. If companies didn't have us to advertise to, Facebook would go broke. So it's time to show we're fed up. Once we've got a million signers to show we're a force, we'll post our demands on Facebook, tag CEO Mark Zuckerberg himself, and go all out to make this the most viral campaign in Facebook history -- and make sure he responds. Add your name.
