Facebook says that it’s “taking action to be more transparent about the foreign interference in the 2016 US Elections and how has a tool to help users figure out if they’ve liked or followed a Facebook page or Instagram account associated with Russia’s Internet Research Agency which has, according to Facebook, created about 470 fake accounts and pages with material designed to divide Americans.
