Starting October, the San Francisco-based social networking company introduced the labelling feature to tweets related to the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election, to curb the spread of misinformation.

Twitter on Tuesday said it will display a label if a user hits 'like' on a disputed tweet. The warning message will prompt users to get more information of the tweet before sharing it on the platform, Twitter Support explained in a tweet.
