The art of the oppressed：There is no such thing as fake news

What a bad article. I mean, starting from the very first parapgraph:

> What puzzles me about the discussions around “fake news”, is how everybody in favor of free speech is now calling for censorship. Like, really? Don’t you see where this will lead — ”a Ministry of Truth” and other things that only 1984 could have envisioned.

There is no one prominent who is arguing for unilateral government censorship of fake news sites. What has been proposed are a series of reforms, usually outside of the legal system, to help people identify blatantly incorrect but otherwise convincing-looking articles on big platforms like Facebook, which bears no resemblance to anything Orwellian.
