# 3. Impacting production and distribution mechanisms

{% hint style="info" %}
Disinformation responses that impact production and distribution mechanisms will be addressed at a future GFMD IMPACT meeting. 
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
The following descriptions of responses are taken from a presentation prepared for the meeting by [Kalina Bontcheva](https://www.sheffield.ac.uk/dcs/people/academic/kalina-bontcheva) - based on [Balancing Act: Countering Digital Disinformation While Respecting Freedom of Expression - 2020](https://www.broadbandcommission.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/WGFoEDisinfo_Report2020.pdf).
{% endhint %}

## Curatorial responses

> Address primarily editorial and content policy and ‘community standards’, although some can also have a technological dimension, which will be cross-referenced accordingly. 

## Technical/algorithmic responses

> *Use algorithms and/or Artificial Intelligence (AI)  to detect and limit the spread of disinformation. Examples: algorithms on the social platforms or video-sharing and search engines themselves; third party tools (e.g. browser plugins), experimental academic research.* 

## Demonetisation responses

> *Designed to stop monetisation and profit from disinformation and thus, disincentivise the creation of clickbait, counterfeit news sites, and other kinds of for-profit disinformation.*

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://impact.gfmd.info/meetings/2021/disinformation/production-distribution-mechanisms.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
