- RajT88 4y agoIndeed. The real solution is: - Delete Twitter - Delete Facebook - Try not to be a dick in general And regular people will be fine. As to the level of surprise we should feel for bad people paying for reputation management, and the reputation management company using shady tactics, the answer is none.

- jstarfish 4y agoTraditionally, ignore it. Streisand Effect. These days, ChatGPT-generated progressively-unhinged nonsense could easily drown out legitimate claims, especially if you post it to your own Wikipedia page.

- JohnFen 4y agoI've been unjustly smeared a few times over the decades. What I found works for me is to ignore it. If you pay attention to it, you give it more credence. Protesting too much tends to make people think there must be some truth to the smear. When asked about it, you tell the truth plainly and calmly. If you have a history of conducting yourself with integrity, that's enough. None of the smears will seriously hurt you because the people who matter know better.
