    A good article: "Why we need critical digital literacy to participate in democracy."

Recent elections in the West, from the election of President Trump in the US to the Brexit referendum in the UK, have signalled the extent to which the internet can be used to distort or fabricate information in the hope of persuading voters. This is one of the reasons why the UK Government is currently developing a digital literacy strategy to make sure that children and adults are equipped with the skills and knowledge they need to engage critically with information in the digital age." ... and so on.
