Quid est veritas? Not sure how I feel about large corporate entities taking the lead on what is and what is not true or acceptable speech. The internet and mass media has oversaturated us with information. Rather than make us smarter, it seems to have filled our minds with garbage. I don't know what the answer is (I suspect the first step is unplugging the machine and opening a book), but for some reason - and I can't quite put my finger on it - it seems unwise to hand the responsibility of educating the masses on absolute truth to organizations with shareholders. Especially Silicon Valley organizations that tend to be comprised of employees with activist mindsets and a monolithic left-wing ideology. Who fact-checks the fact-checkers?
