This is not an internet issue, this is a socio-political issue.

We have yet to figure out new modes of governance, economic relations and political systems that take in account the reality of a society with universal, high quality ICT access.

The fact that it is far easier to spread misinformation is a social issue, not a technological issue. It's driven by the fact that US technology oligarch only care about engagement and they hold no responsibility for their actions (and cannot be prosecuted due to broad support for corruption and criminality in American society).
