Remember when they treated the lab leak theory as misinformation and tried to suppress it? I want an article from them that talks about how they're going to make sure that kind of thing never happens again.


Agreed.

Combating misinformation is now a dog whistle for propaganda enforcement, information control, and counter narrative censorship.

The sad part is it will be hugely successful. The future we will occupy will only contain information that has been approved by the state. Factual nature of information will become irrelevant.


google/youtube is a hopeless case. they might be able to give you an article about this, but anyone wiser would not trust that article or their top management.
