Misinformation and Access: When Falsehoods Shape Who Gets to Know What

Access to information isn’t only about having the technology or bandwidth to reach content — it also depends on whether the information encountered is trustworthy, contextualized, and useful. When misinformation spreads widely, access becomes distorted. People may be flooded with content, yet deprived of reliable knowledge. The result is not just confusion, but unequal access to truth.
