I am conflicted on this, while on the surface this is not a great idea. all kinds of possible issues with it. but when you expand and unpack it, misinfo, disinfo and just junk news sites that are planly propaganda are a problem.

the how, is just as important as the why. in this case; not only that, there are entire segments of the population that buy into some of the junk news, and bad actor sites. which in of itself creates a problem.

I am sure this is probably a solvable problem, but anything you can think of has major trust issues with it. which is part of the problem.

some sort of independent trust index, might work but would still have trust issues with it. as who and how does the index rating get effected?
