Is it possible to protect our knowledge from malicious activities?

Imagine a piece of fake news with an apparent scientific foundation saying that COVID vaccines are dangerous. The consequences of people giving trust to such news can be dramatic. 🦠


However, fake news is spread today on the internet and social media in massive amounts. 📣

We have a well-developed Cybersecurity with tools and millions of professionals working to keep our IT assets safe, 🛡


But we don't have a system and tools for epistemic security to keep our knowledge safe. 📬
