Gates: Lies spread faster than facts on various communication sites

American billionaire Bill Gates told CNBC: Wrong information tends to spread faster than facts on social media.

Gates said in an interview with CNBC. On Tuesday it was aired: "When you get people to communicate, you have to face the fact that, compared to the truth, something very exciting and wrong spreads quickly." He added: "We saw this with the vaccine."

When it comes to "negative" misinformation, Gates said, the facts are slowly spreading on social media, making it difficult for companies like Facebook and Twitter to find a balance.

He said in an interview on Monday: "It is extremely difficult for these media companies to fully follow everything that is said on their platforms, to remove bad things completely and to get rid of these things. Things or delay their spread. He added:" It makes it more difficult to monitor misinformation On Facebook is that in 2019 it was decided to encrypt direct messages on WhatsApp instant messaging.

Gates said, "Because of the WhatsApp encryption capabilities, these companies cannot even see some messages on their platform." He added: "In order not to take responsibility, they covered it. You know, no matter what you have. The problem, whether it is vaccinations or child pornography, now she cannot engage in these things anymore."

Gates spoke of comments from Tesla Electric and CEO of SpaceX (Elon Musk) - the emerging controversy surrounding the Coronavirus (COVID-19). He believes Musk should be concerned with his private affairs, not what he said. "He didn't know who was good at it.

"Elon's position is to maintain a high level of terrible comments," Gates said. He added: "He's not a vaccine. He makes a great electric car. And his rockets are good, so he let him say. I hope he doesn't confuse the areas he doesn't." not good. "
