With an attempt to prevent the spread of political misinformation, Facebook will label posts from popular accounts that mimics legitimate groups and political parties. The new policy will apply to popular pages about elections, entertainment and other topic and will stamp every post they make on Facebook or Instagram. For instance, an Instagram account based in Brazil targetting US voters will have Based in Brazil label in the post.
