Easy solution: Repeal Section 230.

Allow citizens to sue social media companies for the harm caused to them by misinformation and disinformation. The government can stay out of this.

May I suggest only repealing it for companies that generate more than a certain amount of revenue from advertising, or who have more than N users and have algorithmic content elevation?

That seems like a reasonable middle ground.
