Just keep this in mind - Anon stories like this needs to be verified by a reputable journal, newspaper, etc. Medium or Twitter doesn’t do the due diligence. Nation states can fabricate this easily. Not saying that is indeed the case, I’m asking people to stop looking at places like Substack and Medium as a source of truth, especially Anon posters.
WSJ did so much diligence with the Theranos story. Years. They’ve also released a book explaining what went into their analysis and how they approached taking down a big dog like Theranos. Not saying Apple is same as Theronas, mind you; the point is that newspapers such as WSJ do thorough investigations compared to some random anon account on Medium.
I’ve just become increasingly aware of misinformation after this the US elections drama. I take everything with a grain of salt.
- TedDoesntTalk 6y ago> I take everything with a grain of salt. "Trust but verify" --Ronald Reagan There used to be a saying, "Don't believe everything you read on the internet." Somehow it's been forgotten. Not saying the article is false or contrived. I'm saying we just don't know since it's anonymous, and therefore I take it with a grain of salt.
- systemvoltage 6y ago“Trust but verify” - That doesn’t work anymore. Western values are being eroded. Sadly. Sounds alarmist but I feel like the west in next decade is going to have to deal with a lot of “Distrust and ask for verification”.
- TedDoesntTalk 6y ago> That doesn’t work anymore. Western values are being eroded. If I’m reading the origin of that phrase correctly, it’s actually Russian (not Western) and Reagan borrowed it.
