    This is just to try to avoid governments adding regulation around this. They want to say look the industry is self policing we don’t need regulation, whilst they do nothing

      Very true, and Its also kinda too late. (at least in the USA) we have an election coming up in 9 months that has been raging since the last election with misinformation surrounding it. Kinda too late to pull all those Facebook memes and fake articles and go “just kidding! That was all lies!” Everyone who’s been spoon fed that crap has already made up their mind on who they’re voting for, you’re not gonna change it last minute, damage had already been done.
