"Facebook, don't even try to censor fake news…. I absolutely do not trust Facebook to decide what's fake and what's not fake..."
That's something I wrote on November 15, 2016, and I'm seeing it today because my son John is quoting me on Facebook.
John is reacting to a new story at Politico: "Facebook lifts ban on posts claiming Covid-19 was man-made as Wuhan theories surge."
That headline has been changed to "Facebook no longer treating 'man-made' Covid as a crackpot idea/Facebook’s policy tweak arrives as support surges in Washington for a fuller investigation into the origins of Covid-19." The new headline minimizes the problem with Facebook, which was censorship. That's more than just treating something like a crackpot idea. One way to treat a crackpot idea is to call it a crackpot idea — that's the "more speech" remedy that should be our first idea for dealing with bad speech. In this case, more speech would have given us a better chance to approach the truth. By going to censorship, Facebook gummed up the speech process for a year.
Here's my original post from November 2016, "November 15, 2016/Facebook, don't even try to censor fake news. You can't draw that line, and you shouldn't want to." That was just after Trump won the election (and long before the arrival of Covid-19).
