I mean, yea, we’ll do what we can, but frankly, if we’re listening to you, then we weren’t part of the problem in the first place.
This is akin to global warming, and while it is important for every individual to contribute what help they can to the problem (reduce, reuse, recycle is still helpful and probably always will be), we also require both technical and legal tools to combat this problem effectively.
Legal tools are progressing at the usual snails pace, social media companies are under steadily mounting pressure, like lawsuits from bipartisan coalitions of states, that’s a pretty big legal volley. Technical tools are progressing as well, we’re actually all a part of a partial solution right here. Though we’ll need more of both kinds of tools, of course.
The last piece of the puzzle is how to deter hostile actors from creating misinformation firehoses in the first place. Non-state actors are an endless headache. China is hard to touch. Russia though … not so much. Slava Ukraini.
