Facebook is rolling out a notification screen to warn users if they are sharing a news article that is over 90 days old. Users will have the option to ‘go back’ or continue to share the article if they decide it is still relevant.

Social media companies have been introducing measures to promote informed discussion and stop misinformation. Earlier in June, Twitter made a similar move by prompting users to read unopened articles before they are shared
