Thanks for the reply (and the badge!), and I largely agree with what you said. I think the bit about the attention economy is the key point, or at least comes from the same place as the key point. Because the problem is that any and all defenses to influence operations are predicated on people caring enough to be willing to give things up to get it. Nothing is free, and I don't think a top-down solution is workable in this instance. In addition, there's a further disincentive. To quote (or at least paraphrase) a bit from Yes, Minister: no one is going to change the system that got them elected.
