How social media companies are preparing for misinformation after Election Day

As Yael Eisenstat, Senior Fellow in Cybersecurity For Democracy at the NYU Center for Cybersecurity, notes, "Four years ago, these things were not organized on our platforms... I would think that four years later, they would want to assure the public that they're doing everything they can to make sure they don't actually contribute to potential violence again."
