      So it’s like we are entering the Dark Ages for Information. Maybe Dark Information Age or something. There is an insane amount of information available but we are moving to a society in which there is no way to ensure information validity for the average person. Deep fakes are getting way too good. It won’t be long before we have no way to determine validity. Video evidence is now suspect and so is audio. We need some sort of golden record which only reflects accurate information. Like news orgs used to be viewed before infotainment like Fox “News” really started taking off.

      Theoretically, yes, just as poor content is still content - but that only applies until someone takes the time to engage with it.
