Perspective: You are probably spreading misinformation. Here’s how to stop.
Disinformers may also weaponize your family. One tactic is to goad people with language such as “share this if you really care.” That’s the digital equivalent of a chain letter.Even better: Focus on writing and filming your own firsthand experiences and ideas, as opposed to sharing and commenting on others’.Trying to evaluate facts can be difficult and time-consuming. Instead, take a few seconds to evaluate the reputation of the information source.
This matters because when you share or follow a source on social media, you’re actually endorsing it. That might not be your intent, but that’s how social media software functions — every extra follower gives a source more of a voice and helps it rank higher in the algorithms that decide what we all get to see.Make a rule for yourself that you won’t share until you’ve at least glanced at the source’s profile page.Sometimes the immediate source is a family member or friend.
