Spreading misinformation that results in violence towards an individual is not governed by federal laws unless it falls under the definition of a hate crime.
Spreading misinformation about results of elections isn’t illegal but is very obviously quite damaging and has real world consequences. How do you tackle this issue?
That’s just a very very small sample. The problem you are going to face with your approach is that the US laws were not designed with the idea of governing stuff on Twitter.
