That gatekeeping role is collapsing. Platforms have flattened the structure. Now, verification and distribution both happen in public, in real time, on the same networks. Information doesn’t pass through a filter before reaching us, it spreads while it’s still being debated.

Tech could be used to facilitate the verification and exchange of information - yet it does the opposite all too often.
There must be ways to solve for this - it appears a tractable problem.
In a world of endless and instant fake AI video and audio, someone has to verify what's real and what not.
But there's been a lot of distrust in institutions before the AI (LLMs reaaly) bubble hit.
Anti-vaxxers probs the best example.
Anyway, it's a very nice thread and the VDA frameworks is very useful, thanks.
