If we were to move to a system where jurists do their own research, and councils for both sides play the information system, it eventually gets us to a place where the trial is more or less irrelevant, where your peers essentially vote their minds.
We already know what this looks like. It's in comment sections all over the Internet, and it's not pretty. I'd say it's uglier by a few shade than what currently goes on in deliberation./div>
I don't see any possible way to introduce other sources of information without undermining the rules of evidence. As soon as this is allowed in any form, councils for both side will begin to use those outlets to try their cases (more than they are doing now)./div>
