I think something like a very public, televised shaming of researchers found to be fraudulent. Furthermore far, far more done to catch fraud before it is published, like bounties paid out, and instant career destruction to the fraudsters.
There was decades of “but everyone is doing it!” in the system, so much so that fraudsters became presidents of Ivy League institutions. The reckoning has not come.

- tptacek 2y agoThe optimal amount of fraud in any large system is almost never "zero".
- monero-xmr 2y agoYes I will stick by my opinion we should have scientific fraudsters go on a televised panel to be shamed publicly and mercilessly
- tptacek 2y agoSounds awesome, maybe MrBeast can host.

- fzeroracer 2y agoI hope the deep irony of someone whose named after and advertises a cryptocoin talking about fraudsters being shamed publicly on televised panels isn't lost on you.
- lamename 2y agoSure. As long as all the other fraudsters and science deniers that were just elected or waiting to be appointed go too
