The problem I see with tech like this is that it muddies the water for everyone. I find it very strange that technologies like the internet appear to have created a world with more ambiguity and less transparency than we've had before - mostly because people now can find support for any kind of belief online. Some people are either willing to learn or have learned how to get information from reputation based systems and some will just go rogue and create their own reality. I hope democracy survives this shift: Because not only will we have to discuss the facts, now we will also have to discuss: What are the facts?
