That scratch in my surface jumps me back, yet again, to the postmodern point:

Beware of the online war of propaganda
http://news.usc.edu/82853/beware-of-the-war-of-propaganda-taking-place-online/

“People normally trust online content,” said Farshad Kooti, one of the Ph.D. 
candidates at USC Viterbi who worked with Galstyan. “Unfortunately, this 
introduces an opportunity to spread misinformation by using automated bots that 
are very hard to detect.”

Misinformation and disinformation are NOT the threat.  Trust is the threat.
