Short positions should be reported daily. Any attempts by institutional investors to drive stock prices up/down (smear campaigns, fake DD, Spam/Ads) should result in fines that actually impact the guilty parties, not just a tiny percent of the profit from the illicit activities. There needs to be actual penalties for breaking the rules, or the so-called "free market" will ever truly exist and we'll never be on a level playing field. Naked shorting should be illegal. the ability to borrow shares exceeding the float is wrong. Dark pools, false reports and manipulation are so rampant, it's a wonder any retail traders still exist.
