16hCommunication, mainly through the media (Including social networks and AI), is a key element for changing the paradigm. It is necessary to alienate the goals, rules and so on... with that "code of ethics" of journalism that upholds values such as truthfulness, independence, objectivity, fairness, accuracy, respect for others, and public accountability...
