I don't really see the point in banning accounts or similar, but remove the incentive to post bullshit and less bullshit will get posted.

The problem is, who decides what's misinformation? I can site both sides claiming misinformation when it wasn't. Wouldn't it be ideal and in the spirit of 1A to let all speech (speech that is protected under 1A) be present and let the truth counter misinformation?
