With the rise of fake news and deep fake videos, Verified Accounts are the future.
Add to this a layer where verified people/companies can acknowledge news stories as being factual.
While also allowing unverified stories to be shared. Every post will be tagged one of these:
- fun
- factual
- verified
- opinion
- unsure
Accounts that get repeatedly reported for hate or lies will be investigated. They will be offered their own parallel channel to exist in.
But – What About The Other Thing?
It is one thing to offer up official information, but how can you disprove content that depicts you unofficially?
For example, well-known Australian gameshow host Andrew O’Keefe:
Now I’ve done the same thing in the same place… but I’m not famous.
If that was faked, there is only one way to refute it – a drone that constantly films you when you are in public, time-stamped and verified by a trusted 3rd party.
