Experts expect a flood of disinformation and deepfakes, but federal officials feel limited in what they can do. “The FBI is not in the truth detection business,” one official said.
Well they better figure it out soon! The disinformation is through the roof on social media.
The latest right wing conspiracy theory is that Biden isn’t Biden and the CIA is using “CIA mask technology” on somebody for Biden’s public appearances. I shit you not. Boomers lead in the paint brains.
They can’t. It would immediately run afoul of 1st amendment court challenges on top of appearing partisan, making them look bad on top of probably getting struck down.
We can’t escape the 1st amendment protecting the right to lie, outside of a handful of exceptions. The current SC is unlikely to side with us to acknowledge another exception in the current climate, with conservatives outnumbering us 6-3.
This one cannot be tackled by the government, we have to beat it grassroots and private sector. There are no other realistic options that I’ve heard floated anywhere.
