Misinformaation ikävät puolet ovat kiistattomia, mutta tapa, jolla puhumme niiden uhkista, ei ole paras mahdollinen.

Miksi misinformaatio ei ole ongelma? – Mevi
Vaikka mis- ja disinformaation uhka niin yksilöille kuin yhteiskunnalle on laajasti tunnustettu, onko huoli liioiteltua? Tuomas Heikkilä tarkastelee artikkessaan, miten tutkijat ovat problematisoineet...

No surprise from an administration of disinformation actors.
Just feeling deeply angry for my colleagues.
Pretending that research on misinformation ”infringes on the constitutionally protected speech rights of American citizens” is such pathetic bs.
