X community adds a context note to user's post: An X account known as Bay Area State of Mind posted "A flight from Australia to San Francisco took off with fuel coming out of the rear landing gear." The post included a video clip of the incident. The X community added a note to the post that read: "Readers added context they thought people might want to know. A fuel leak from the landing gear is improbable, since the Boeing 777 has no fuel lines routed through the landing gear. The nature of the leak has not been confirmed by United, and claims of a fuel leak are speculation. cbsnews.com/sanfrancisco/n… This link contains a diagram of the fuel system. faa.gov/lessons_learne…" The label is part of X’s Community Notes system. X users are able to sign up as contributors to add context to posts. X owner Elon Musk shared that any post with a Community Note added to it will be demonetized. The Community Notes account on X also posted that notices will be pushed to users who previously engaged with a post when a Community Note is added to it later.
