The best option imo is for independent organizations that people trust to handle fact checking, and have such organizations fact check each other. I also think it’s completely appropriate for the government to fact check news agencies as well, provided they don’t attempt to shut down orgs with a poor track record.
We should still educate people better, but there’s still going to be a ton of people falling for nonsense like this.
Nah, that’s not going to be enough, well educated people fall for scams all the time.

It’s both, uneducated people don’t have a basis to establish trust with.
