Facebook To Verify Identity of People Behind High-Reach Profiles

https://about.fb.com

In 2018, Facebook started to verify the identity of people managing Pages with large audiences, and now they are extending ID verification to some profiles with large audiences in the US. Moving forward, they will verify the identity of people who have a pattern of inauthentic behavior on Facebook and whose posts start to rapidly go viral in the US.

If someone chooses not to verify their identity or the ID provided does not match the linked Facebook account, the distribution of their viral post will remain reduced so fewer people will see it. In addition, if the person posting is a Page admin, they’ll need to complete Page Publishing Authorization and will not be able to post from their Page until their account is verified through their existing Page Publisher Authorization process. IDs will be stored securely and won’t be shared on the person’s profile.
