RE: NFTs To Combat Fake News

in #nfts6 years ago

You didn't spell out NFT (for those who do not know the nomenclature.. and there are a few uses of those initials)

The root problem is we cannot say with any certainty that anything is NOT fake news.

Take the Wuhan-flu.
Everything changes. The meaning of every piece of data becomes different when it is revealed that this is a bio-weapon.

Suddenly everything the MSM said is instantly known as fake news
and some things crackpot tin foil hat wearing Tube-pundits becomes real news.

Or take for instance "the gender pay gap"
The reality is that women are paid 8-20% more than men for the same work, same skill and same time. But, that is such fake news that you are instantly banned from many platforms for saying. Although it is 100% backed by data AND accounting audits.

Or take "we live on a ball of earth hurtling through space which is a vacuum"
This has been disproven... either that or light doesn't go in straight lines, and local mass has more effect than further away mass on gravity...
But, to speak of these facts is totally fake news.

So, how will NFTs effect fake news, except to provide an audit trail (which usually ends up going back to the same paper that was disproven years ago.)
