Contain the spread of misinformation

Kind of chilling given what is happening between the Biden Administration and Facebook.

Jen Psaki just said “We’re flagging problematic posts for Facebook that spread disinformation.” Should be terrifying to anyone who values free speech. Big tech companies are now default state actors. pic.twitter.com/xOosfhuF2y

Juxtaposed with the approach during Chernobyl.

The authoritarian mind will always be with us.  It is an active duty to constrain it, leaving space for free citizens to exercise their natural rights of free speech without let or hindrance from the government or its deputized agents (Facebook).  It is doubly disconcerting given the government's extraordinarily poor track record of accurately recognizing facts.
