What’s the best way to deal with disinformation campaigns? Disinfo campaigns seem like a serious problem, and imo are responsible for a lot of the political instability we see today. But I don’t see any good way to prevent them. One option is censorship, but that can backfire and is easily abused. Another option is user verification, but most implementations of that sound like a privacy nightmare. So what do we do? Are there any good solutions?

@chimpchomp @RMiddleton It starts with education in media literacy. And unfortunately, our education system has been slowly eroding for years. It also starts with having independent media, which has also been slowly eroding over the years since media companies are allowed to become monopolies.
