- Summary:
- Delve into the global surge of disinformation and examine its roots in changes to communication and the internet, its impact on events like Brexit and COVID-19, and its role in fostering parallel realities. Highlighted are the transformation of social media from a utopian space to a tool for manipulation, exacerbating societal divisions and threatening peace and cooperation. Experts discuss the historical context of disinformation, the privatization of public discourse, and the urgent need for a unified global approach to combat the spread of harmful ideologies.
