Are all of our efforts to beat fake news creating worse problems than we are supposedly solving? Will any of the approaches even work?
In this talk, Shane Greenup will argue that all of the popular solutions being pursued are at best, band aid fixes, or at worst, incredibly counter-productive and dangerous to society. Fortunately though, by taking the best aspects of each approach it may be possible to construct a solution which works at the correct scale (global), acts on the right targets (the people, not the content), and ultimately gives us a society more resistant to fake news than ever before.
