Considering you can be self taught certain subjects, this seems classist at best

I don't trust that law. "Only professionals can talk about X" just sounds like a legal way to say "Only the approved message of the government can be stated. Anything else is illegal."

Putting aside the anti-freedom side for a second, if that law got implimented in the US, the Trump admin would bend over backwards to justify how PragerU and Asmagold are qualified while actual scitentists and experts are lying for money.
Definitely all of these three

How about we get rid of the degree requirement but keep the requirement to cite your sources and label your AI and other manipulated video or images?
Nah, it wouldn't make any difference. Show of hands, CE: who clicked the link in the first post?

Would you want, say, RFK Jr. dictating to medical professionals across the country what is and isn't acceptable to say online?
He is *not* qualified. So, the consensus of actual medical professionals would regulate any claims that he could make, not the other way around.

Does the Chinese government have to approve academic studies and research over there?

Is that what you think this would be? In the current anti-intellectual climate of the US that actual doctors and scientists would be the ones whose opinions would be approved?

LOL...It's simply going to be a Gov't created and run law where their "experts" will be the ones creating "expert" viewpoints and monitoring online commentary from the actual professionals of their fields.

So RFK, Linda McMahon, etc actually would be the "professionals" whose opinions will be the approved Gov't message.
In case you didn't know, some Youtube videos have a message saying "From an accredited US hospital" or "From a licensed medical practitioner". This should be extended so that any channel can request to have their degree in any discipline on display and it would allow viewers to immediately distinguish between authoritative figures and deluded assholes who like the sound of their own voice too much.

Ideally, for the sake of credibility, but those could become mutually exclusive. In any professional field, consensus is not limited to findings from any one country. If US government approved research does become such an outlier, it will be dropped from international conference discussions and publications.

That doesn't help things when the platforms themselves are American. Sure the rest of the world will say that the research is objectively wrong, but the YouTube video from an American creator would be unaffected. Fundamentally flawed research is already dismissed, that's the whole process of peer reviewing and recreating results. It hasn't helped at all.

On top of that, if it's a legal framework then ultimately the government is responsible for enforcing it. Do you think this administration and its backers would do this when it only benefits them for the disinformation to spread?

This only works in a society that doesn't need it.

I don't trust this to be credible in China, much less the US. The easiest solution is to force the influencers to cite their sources.
--I understand your opinion. I just don't care about it. ~Jedah--
As much I think there are a lot of benefits to keeping uninformed armchair experts from chiming into life affecting topics with potentially lethal or life ruining misinformation, I really don't trust the Chinese government to not strangle public discourse entirely by pushing the requirement of expertise beyond the intial outlay of finance, medicine and education.

"Sensitive topics" will ultimately mean whatever the fuck they want it to mean.

Not sure we want our western governments taking a leaf out of that book given how dicey democracy is looking in certain countries.
