Elon Musk’s big plans for Twitter

That could go a reasonable way towards returning sanity to social media information distribution - to have people registering for accredited, verified profiles.

In other words, when the holder of such an account says something, there is an element of traceability to whatever it is he says. And, if he is interested in building credibility, he will limit whatever he says to either personal knowledge/experience or to accounts that are also accredited and verified.

And to add a traceable tree to such items should be trivial.

After a while, your normal Joe will learn that if he wants accurate information, he should pick it up from accredited profiles. That should at least filter out the anonymous BS.
