People who couldn't see what damage the internet could do weren't reading enough science fiction.
I didn't think about any damage, but when the whole Clinton thing broke in the 90s, I started telling people that the "free exchange of ideas online" would not be tolerated for long. Even then you could see how citizen journalism and letting people speak freely about events would turn into a "threat" against the status quo and would have to be shut down.
I was thinking of something related but different. Lots of sci-fi stories about telepaths and the advantages they could have by their instant knowledge of the truth. Which would always lead to them being persecuted by the non-telepaths for the invasion of their privacy, or by the powers that wanted to deceive. Same difference, the internet leads to instant dissemination of both truth and lies, and a struggle to control the narrative.
