Was getting ready this morning and the ending of MGS2 came to mind.

Plot

It states that GW was the only AI destroyed, and that the S3 Plan’s real purpose is to control human thought to prevent society’s regression in the digital era from trivial information drowning knowledge and truth in the belief that humanity is too immature to handle the flow of information responsibly

Though the villains in MGS2 seemed to have better intentions than the nation states / trolls that are flooding the internet today.

    Drag doesn’t think Armstrong is capable of good faith. Good faith means acting with a bare minimum of prosociality. Raiden thinks Armstrong would agree violence breeds violence. Technically that’s true, but Armstrong doesn’t have any problem with that. He’s pure, unashamed evil. There’s honesty, but no good faith.
