For the third year in a row, Donald Trump tops the list of world's most dangerous online person.
In just the most recent months of his first year as president, he's used his Twitter to fan hatred, spreading fake anti-Muslim videos from a discredited rightwing British group.
He has undermined his own State Department's diplomatic efforts to prevent nuclear war by taunting and threatening North Korea. And he has systematically sought to erode Americans' trust in the media.
When Americans can't agree on basic truths like the role of Russia in meddling with the US election, and Libyan or Burmese officials discount reports of slavery and ethnic cleansing in their countries as "fake news," credit Trump's misinformation offensive.
Trump remains a solipsistic bully and a temperamental, pathological and systematic liar—one who's able to issue his threats, insults, and lies directly to millions of people from the smartphone in his pocket.
More than ever, the internet has shown that its dangers aren't somehow unhooked from real world.
Wired, a monthly American magazine, has been watching online in 2017 with that in mind, that Trump is among dangerous characters in 2017.
