Government censorship! No, I'm kidding. But I think something akin to mass surveillance will be needed (hopefully not in a way like China). The fundamental principle is that a bigger (more popular, more powerful, etc.) entity needs more scrutiny. The common strategy to do this is constant monitoring and quick response. So we would build a mechanism that keeps watching the popularity of all the information sources all the time, and allocate public eyeballs accordingly. And all the findings (including the surveillance system itself) must be published. I don't know how to do it exactly, but I can kinda imagine a world that implements such a system. And you know what's the catch? I think we should probably lose our privacy by a large margin. Now the question is, are we ready to sacrifice some of our rights to fight a bigger enemy like this?
