I don’t want to promote ‘state media’ per se, as that is often an abused form of ‘information and news’, but maybe we do need an official public distribution of warnings for current foreign lies and propaganda campaigns.
Possibly require social media, and typical sources of such propaganda campaigns to display a banner with warnings of recent things that are being spread and not true.
Sadly also a thing that could be abused, but we do need new tools in our toolbox.
