It looks like you don't understand what a vector is. Here's my PSA for the day:
vector
1- quantity that has magnitude and direction and that is commonly represented by a directed line segment whose length represents the magnitude and whose orientation in space represents the direction
2 - an organism (such as an insect) that transmits a pathogen from one organism or source to another The insect vector in malaria is the anopheline mosquito, a genus comprising many species around the world.
3 - an agent (such as a plasmid or virus) that contains or carries modified genetic material (such as recombinant DNA) and can be used to introduce exogenous genes into the genome of an organism
I'm sure you have no recollection of the Musk rants about how Twitter was full of fake accounts, spreading misinformation.
@Northwest Shouldn't your question be addressed to the Reuters reporter? By the way, one might ask why a representative of the "free press" is asking a government spokesperson about doing something about "preventing' disinformation.

It's as if you completely side-stepped the OP's post. Specifically:
Vectors for misinformation, UNITE! I don't even know what the hell Karine Jean-Pierre and that Stanford professor are talking about, but it sounds like so much fun, count me in!
@Northwest @Northwest She explained in a reply to another commenter the QandA which led to her post. It actually done not matter what "vector" literally means. The dumb (or ingenuous) question led to Molly's clever riff on Orwellian concerns. Or are you completely in support of bringing Nina Jankowitz back?

tongue-in-cheek.
adjective ˈtəŋ-in-ˈchēk : characterized by insincerity, irony, or whimsical exaggeration
See my comment on the other thread, my sickie friend.
So, now you're arguing with me on another thread, one that I don't know about, and I have no link to?
That's rich, and shows how disillusioned you are, when you think someone other than you, is engaging in arguing for argument's sake. Have your head examined, grandpa.
@Northwest "disillusioned" "head examined", "grandpa": your discourse seems to be falling to even lower, more slimy levels. It would be kinder to attribute them to mental deterioration than malignancy on your part but it is doubtful. It is true that you lack maturity, so anyone could be your grandpa.

Slimy is where I have to go, to meet you at your level. Good thing though that pointless arguments are not your style.

You were slimy before you encountered me, Northwest. Malignacny is part of your character. At first you give the impression of being a hip modern jacobin but the malignanc y shows pretty quickly. Perhaps you'll meet the justice Marat or Robespierre experienced. .
@Northwest You deserve ad hominems. It is less about what you say than what you are. You are malignant and worse than your initial argumentative ninny persona indicated. Even your ID is a stain on a beautiful part of our country. 🤣
@Northwest @Northwest There was NO logic to that lame "riposte" . Your defective character---do you get it? that is your shortcoming-- just keeps you sputtering on when there is no more to be said..
@LamontCranston says the guy who keeps sputtering on, when there is nothing left to say. I wish you have enough brains to understand what irony is, but hey, as long as this is beneath you.
@Northwest Nothing, however, appears to be beneath you, NW. Your initial facade of wit brshattered long ago. Your sly assertions of intellectual superriority don't hold up. But you character is what is really defective. Much harder to cure. Why don't you go to bed? Maybe you'll do better in the morning. 🤣
@LamontCranston thank you for your concern, but in fact the only thing you’ve done is ad hominem.
To impeach my character, intellect, or comments, you have to come up with something other than ad hominem.
Have you noticed that this is the only thing you’ve done? I am certainly amused, because you’re doing the same things you’re accusing of, except you take the lead. I keep waiting for you to realize it, but it doesn’t look there’s much happening up there for you.
Instead of telling me to go to bed, why don’t you do that, or have you not figured what deflection means yet.
Well, as long as this is beneath you, and you’re too good for endless, childish ad hominem.
