Interesting. Seems some folks used to spreading disinfo without fear of suspension are struggling with the new COVID-19 policies. Another view: Twitter is able to do with COVID misinfo/disinfo what it was unable or unwilling to do with previous political disinfo.https://twitter.com/oliverdarcy/status/1243979360920637442 …

In general, I think the academic field of misinformation is fighting the last war. Social media disinformation is real, but nothing compared to the WHO/CDC crisis which will go down in history as one of the biggest failures in their history, if not the biggest.

(You'll note I'm not mentioning Trump admin misinformation! That's a whole other ball of wax.) The stuff on masks is honestly Saddam had WMD level misinformation. Health authorities in Hong Kong or Taiwan aren't idiots and the evidence is not even complicated.
