Facebook has announced plans to hire 1,000 employees to review ads, in an effort to keep Russia and other countries from using the social media platform to interfere in elections. Facebook said last month that it found evidence that Russian entities bought approximately 3,000 political ads in the U.S. in the months leading up to and after the 2016 U.S. presidential election. Facebook also said Monday that it will invest in software to flag and take down ads automatically.
