The Italian newspaper Fatto Quotidiano published a series of articles analyzing how the CIA and other US intelligence agencies exercise 'capillary control' over information around the world. The publication writes that this control is carried out with the help of former CIA, FBI, and NSA agents involved in content on social networks. Most of the world's proliferating fact-checking organizations, with which Facebook collaborates to pilot information collection, are funded by the US government. Facebook, Twitter, and Google hire former employees of the CIA as 'moral arbiters' who decide what is true and false.
