Satire sites run fake headlines about Mark Zuckerberg to test Facebook

Further ironically, these &quot;false&quot; articles are exactly the type of irreverent satire that will inevitably end up as collateral damage from any attempt to arbitrate truth.<p>Censorship is coming. The right tack is probably editorialization for sponsored messages, and free communication between users. But we know business concerns and political appeasement will give us the exact opposite.<p>The only sustainable path forward is decentralization, as these centralized nuisances inevitably get destroyed by the impossible situation they&#x27;ve put themselves in.<p>(Also what is with this article&#x27;s unquestioning assumption that the word salad signed by Trump actually does anything at all? The legislative branch makes the laws, and section 230 does not hinge on interpretation by the executive branch)

It was flagged to death here yesterday.<p>(And I agree that satire have probably nothing to do on HN, but I’m not sure everyone who flagged it looked at the rest of the site, where it was clear that it was satire, but instead thought it was fake news or something. I might be totally wrong assuming that also)

The dumbest headline is the Business Insider one. The articles are clearly not “testing” anyone. It’s satire. Yeesh.
