- Information overwhelm, especially with breaking news/widespread global health issues
- Political polarization and tendency towards information feedback loops
- Erosion of trust in scientific institutions (and institutions in general)

- Profits can be gained from the spread of misinformation
Not a lot of new insights, but a good starting point.
