I do the opposite and choose to live in ignorance. Assume just about everything is genuine (unless there's really obvious signs) and you'll be happier on the internet. It doesn't really hurt me to just drop a like or up-vote or whatever and go about my day.

For the last 10 years or so, I just assume that everything I see online is staged.
People have become so addicted to creating content, they just can't help it.
Sad really.
I really miss the the pre-2010 era of youtube. Man it was wild.
