    I’m saying it again: We can’t know what’s true anymore. Whenever something happens more than a few miles away, chances are high that you know nobody who was involved there physically, so there’s no reliable way of knowing what actually happened anymore.

    I think we can only make reasonable choices about things that are close enough to ourselves; not about very far-away entities.

      If you record a video on your phone, is there no Metadata to help verify its validity? Gotta be something we can do about this.
