[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1069249, member: 74121"] Macron on 'fake news' [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.euronews.com/2022/01/11/macron-people-spreading-fake-news-should-be-held-accountable-brought-to-justice[/URL] Personally I think the solution is: i) Any social media outlet is responsible for what is published on their site and has to abide by the same rules and regulations as newspapers. ii) anything posted publically on the internet by a private individual should be treated in the same manner as if it was a letter that was physically posted or a poster stuck on a wall. End this 'if we moderate it, its not a crime' iii) get rid of anonymity on the internet and stupid fake pseudonyms (like fake Georgian names). We should all have to log on to the internet with our real names and country of origin to remove the sense that we can all say what the hell we want without consequence. I'm not sure any of the above will ever be implemented and banning foreign ownership of the press (like Macron mentions here, and Poland has already implemented I believe) is not going to address the more fundamental issues that are making this the most enthralling period of collective mania since the 1930s.
