I can appreciate this study putting some numbers and metrics to a phenomena that I'm sure a lot of people would agree exists.
Something that is probably controversial - I think it is just far too easy to share articles, blogs, etc through social media. If you were to put in a small hurdle, even just needing to copy-paste the actual link to the article instead of clicking a share button, I would imagine a significant volume of sharing (admittedly everything, including good / accurate information) would disappear. If it was just a little bit harder to share misinformation, I think it would overall be a benefit.
