My point is that this information is typically not verifiable in an independent sense. This get essentially to what is truth, the truth we should all agree is the truth no matter who's providing it to us. We can verify it for ourselves. As an example, if we have 14 videos of the same incident and they show roughly the same events then we can be fairly confident that that event occured because we trust that those 14 sources are real and non-colluding.

If the information is verifiably false, it doesn't matter who proves it.

It's fine. Email is not the most important thing in the world. Writefreely and lemmy are probably enough to start but I still have leads.

For some reason it won't load a temporary email over Tor, which I'm going to insist on since there's no rush.

This isn't what happened for me. They wanted an email confirmation so it's rather chicken and egg. Maybe tutanota will work as an initial provider then i can get a protonmail. It seems these services have their ideas about which are acceptable for what.
