Very true. This is something very new and that will get worse with time. You definitely should not trust random videos forwarded on WhatsApp. The biggest problem is stopping these sources from spreading to those who will believe them. Public opinion can be easily bolstered by fake videos. People generally don’t fact check sources that prove what they already “know.” Videos and pictures without context spread on social media like wildfire. Great efforts will be needed to stop this from happening.
