• Better NOT TO WRITE ANYTHING than to spew out automated garbage or even human-written garbage like that which PR agents keep pushing by E-mail all the time. The WWW won't be able to retain its old status as platform for news. The news is outnumbered and marginalised out of site by torrents of SPAM. Likewise, search engines are becoming "SPAM gardens".

• For today's WWW, for news at lready, one MUST narrow down to a set of domains that have not (YET) been compromised. Then, with RSS, one can do aggregation. Any other approach would not work or barely be practical. Curation by source scales OK. Gulag Noise (Google News) is already obsolete. It's news-like noise.

• LLMs are not the main issue. Before them, sites published spew and spam "at scale" too. Some used machine translation (e.g. Google Translate) to convert articles in one language to another. It seemed "original", but it was not... and quality (or precision) was "lost in translation". This is a crisis is information circulation. States should worry.
