Quote of the Day:
The web is becoming the medium of choice for disinformation and misinformation, including official efforts to inject new “memes” into the culture. Although I remain an optimist about the web as a medium for free exchanges of data and faster communication of high value, it is also a potential tool for propaganda, false rumors intentionally planted and for a range of techniques designed to alter or filter social reality.
