Facebook Accused Of Protecting Its Elite Users Through 'XCheck'

The Wall Street Journal report accused Facebook of treating its elite users like politicians, celebrities, and journalists differently than "common users" through its Crosscheck or XCheck tool. This tool protects VIPs in terms of less scrutiny on controversial posts by them. While defending itself, Facebook claims to treat everyone equally. However, the social media giant accepts that system is not perfect, and there are scopes for improvement.
