This panel examines how governments and private actors are going after disinformation. Do deepfakes present a unique form of lies and misinformation, or are these familiar? What are the merits and drawbacks of the emerging European model of content regulation? In the United States, what is the role of jawboning? Are private sector solutions viable? Are there other models to consider in addressing lies, misinformation, and deepfakes?
