The story here is that "year after year, less than 60 percent of web traffic is human; some years, according to some researchers, a healthy majority of it is bot." The question is, what (if anything) can we do about it? The author writes, "What's gone from the internet, after all, isn't 'truth,' but trust: the sense that the people and things we encounter are what they represent themselves to be." This suggests that a means of finding truth without trust will not solve the problem of the fake internet. I'm not sure about that. I think truth is more foundational than trust.
