In other recent news, Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ:META). has announced a series of significant developments. The company has initiated a trial to allow users to browse eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY) listings on Facebook Marketplace in Germany, France, and the U.S. This decision follows a European Union ruling concerning competition, and the move is expected to benefit both eBay sellers and Facebook Marketplace users by increasing visibility and offering a wider range of listings.

In a parallel development, Meta has announced a shift in its content moderation policy, transitioning from a U.S. fact-checking program to a community-based system.
