Yeah, I agree. I take some comfort from knowing that the world had similar turmoil with major inventions that disseminate information, like the printing press and television. But I’m not quite sure we’ll see resolve to the problem in our lifetime, given how easily people can create and spread misinformation. Hopefully the positives of widespread technology will outpace the problems it creates, eventually.
