who gets to decide what is "misinformation?" as far as i'm concerned, *i am the only one who gets to decide that. i don't trust any other entity to make that decision on my behalf.
So at a minimum you would be asking for a law that said social media companies "may not apply their own discretion" or something similar, which is quite similar to saying they no longer have the power to censor, etc.?

Not exactly, they'd still have the right to censor - whether that be porn, gore, or vaccine conspiracies or something - but they wouldn't be able to pick and choose who they apply those rules to.

But what is a "vaccine conspiracy"? Someone has to _judge_ whether it is a conspiracy or not. So you still get into the problem of, "why did you say A was a conspiracy, but not B, when B seems equally improbable", etc.?
