@EUCommission We shall for sure form a society-wide effort to educate older generations regarding not only this, but scams as well.

But I'm a bit of skeptical with the rules.
Don't get me wrong, we shall sanction deepfakes. But the law doesn't protect uneducated on all the scams / fakes to not fall victim to those. They can at most sanction the one who did it, if we'd be able to find the culprit.

We should put a huge emphasis on education.

@connynasch @EUCommission Well, there are some options.
The worst but most effective in regard to finding who is outputting disinformation / deepfakes is requiring all accounts to be ID verified.
Why is this bad? At least the company, if not everyone, will know who you really are causing a great harm to free press.
And you still might get bypassed.

Another bad option would be AI. (I think I needn't explain why this is bad idea).

Another is censorship. Allowing only some to post.

@connynasch @EUCommission

Non of these a great and frankly, there's no bullet proof solution to this.

The best solution by me would be a huge investments into education regarding propaganda, fakes, scams & existing technologies. Even for the older generations.

Society wide resilience towards fakes will take time, but it seems as the best option.

Why?
Because if you only sanction disinformation and not educate others about it, they will fall victim.
