    Oh noes: a private company that has no duty to challenge falsehoods has given up any pretense of giving a fuck.

      They asolutely should and likely do have a duty to challenge falsehoods.

      The word private makes people feel like it isnt anyone’s business but that isnt the case.

        I’d rather “trust” a company that cuts the bullshit with notices like

        The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood.
        Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact.

        to remind the user that trusting noncredible information from unreliable sources is a ridiculous concept.
