  Then I think you should get a Facebook account and and have a look and experience the problem of people spreading misinformation first hand. I used to think that the right approach was to be completely hands off. The reason was that I thought it would have to be an all-or-nothing kind of affair. Because if you censor some of the crap, you have to be able to censor all of it or you will be sued into oblivion. But "nothing" is considerably worse than "some" in this case. And if how law is practiced stops companies from doing some good and choosing to do nothing, that isn't a good way to go about it. So I think there needs to be some legal protection for companies that do try to remove misleading information. So they don't get sued if they fail to remove all of it. I can understand if you are against removing information on principle. I'm not fond of it either. But when people get hurt for absolutely no good reason, it starts to matter.
