You are saying that lying online is a problem so severe that it requires solutions too radical to contemplate?

  > You are saying that lying online is a problem so severe that it requires solutions too radical to contemplate? "Lying online" is your characterization, not mine. Fake news isn't merely "lying online." And the solution I was advocating was pretty radical: a massive breakup of the tech platforms and social networks that make widespread fake news dissemination much more practical than it ever was.

    When you said "radical" I thought you were going to suggest re-education camps or something. So if you aren't going to criminalize lying, what exactly are we arguing about? I am saying we shouldn't trade away rights -- are you saying that we should trade away rights? If so, which ones?
