Trust News Initiative is also old hat. That started in 2018-2019 and was not just social media. The news was actively looking for platforms as well - I built one which was requested in 2019 to change and support a trust News platform, a police and government portal, military, etc.....
This was common....if you were in apps that is....these were legit requests.....
Client: 'So the News needs their own portals....and the government needs their own moderation....etc....can you build this?'
Consultant: 'Sure! Though Google and Apple have been making it harder to reseller those services....since they have them under lock and key and have been trying to avoid people cutting into their business....'
