Good Will and Truthfullness Insurance with Online Media-Care (a political science fiction tale)

Once upon a time it became just too easy to spread hate lies and deception on the internet, and get away with it. Big Tech firms made it easy to upload or repost using a fake identity. The online media environment became heavily polluted with false information and predatory scams.

How do false fables flow?
From whence to they come?
And where do they go?
This is for us to learn and to know.

It became expected that people should become skilled at detecting online scams and use their time to fact check online stories. It seemed finding the truth was taking up more and more time and not much was clear anymore.

Then a different way of organizing how online communication works was proposed. The idea was to have a public library of online media content. To make it safe, content would have to be uploaded (added to the library) by a real identifiable person who could be held responsible for any harm that their content might cause, and who could be credited with payments for the use of their content.

It was thought that accurate ID and strict penalties for online harm, would discourage evil uploaders, preventing hate and harm from being able to colonize the public online library in the first place.

People began to understand that without making any effort to further regulate or control the Big Tech Industries they could create this other safer and more efficient resource.

Some claimed this would be censorship but it would be only censorship in an online public place. Freedom of expression by anonymous actors could continue to exist in the private sector. Big Tech firms would most likely collapse a bit as people would change to using safer publicly funded online content access services (Online Public Libraries).

It was expected everyone would be more able, to more quickly, learn more about how to have more fun, while burning less.

They asked — How do we know if this will work?

Someone asked — How can you provide evidence that something does not work if you don’t try it?

They tried it. It worked.

And they all lived more happily ever after.

The End
