Perhaps I'm being a bit too optimistic, but access to information isn't the same now as it was in the 20th century.

Although we have a lot of false information to filter through out there, we don't have to rely on what's available at the local library or what our friends and family believe. I hope that it's going to be increasingly difficult to spread misinformation and fear mongering.
