My trust is broken.
Am I a provably nasty actor who ... etc?
My trust has been broken repeatedly, by things like the Snowden documents (and the media coverup of its contents) and Iraq War propaganda (with media participation), and yes by gamed use of scoring algorithms and selective/politicized moderation of social media.
My trust was particularly broken when Facebook censored (literally did not allow me to post) Snowden documents.
When I see media coverage today of, let's say Syria, and see all the ways its spun and partially covered, it's hard for me to have faith in the rest of what's being said.
And - regarding censorship of let's say even the most vitriolic of activity or just plain widespread belief in certain communities of certain facts - do you want a Trump Administration (or really any state police) to be in charge of that?
I was criticized as being a paranoid conspiracy monger for speaking about US government surveillance before Snowden, and for being vocal about the fact Saddam Hussein had nothing to do with 9/11, wasn't connected to Anthrax, and didn't have weapons of mass destruction.
People called me paranoid, vitriolic and a 'truther', creating a straw man of my case and finding every reason not to listen to what I had to say. A million people dead and a destabilized region later, with a vacuum filled by religious extremism exploited for proxy war - and still people can barely muster up a revision to their earlier perspective and an admission that the Iraq War was not only illegal, but a war of choice, a war of aggression and one bolstered by an extremely efficient and systemic capability to propagandize not only the American people but all audiences of US broadcasting.
I have good, justified reasons to have broken trust. Today I trust, but I verify. And I continually find spin, mis- and dis-information playing a huge role in public, 'polite' conversation.
I dislike being called a paranoid conspiracy monger (again) by the implications of your comment. I watched Reddit transform after it got acquired and Twitter transform after it fell to State Department pressure. I've watched Facebook game its results for a long time, as it has every legal but no moral right to do.
My trust has legitimate reasons to be broken, and invoking 'conspiracy mongering' as an explanation heals no wounds and does not move the community closer to solving the credibility problem of public information services.
