Ambinder proposes an idea for “circuit Breakers” to help stop the spread of information that can be detrimental to things like the integrity of the election or public health. What he is proposing is a program that social media platforms impose that automatically assess posts for these things, The article states that 1 in 5 people get their news from social media. So many people think they can say anything no matter if there is any truth in it because they can hide behind a screen which then causes uproar and fear in others which is unfair to the general public.
