This Fake News hysteria seems to be driving a bunch of false concern about protecting the unsuspecting masses from perceived bad information. The problem is manyfold though because fake news can be very subjective, and who will be chosen as the ultimate authority to determine what is fake and what is not.
I believe that there will always be a certain number people that will still believe falsehoods even after they have been given the correct information. I believe it is a bad idea which will weaken societies collective ability to think on their feet and to be able to discern fact from fiction. Let's move this one into the history books for the sake of everyone.
