It's almost as if paying for a trusted or verified badge makes it easier to spread misinformation
He claims that paying helps eliminate bots, there's no way he truly believes that or he is dumber than given credit for. The entities that are interested in disinformation have deep pockets. Most of disinformation on Facebook was done by paying them.
But then unemployed facebook moms can’t spread their misinformation about whatever it is that’s virally spreading that week.
