Self reporting of short interest needs to stop, that is like someone self-reporting what crimes they commit and not having a background check. Short interest needs to be reported immediately through automated means (mandatory monitoring software controlled by a regulatory agency) and made available to the public immediately within an hour.

I’m just a small time retail investor and I know my opinion doesn’t matter… I’d just like to see maybe more regulation on the dark pool.

I fully support this effort to improve short interest enhancements. When bad actors are allowed to create a synthetic share out of thin air through dishonesty and illegal activity, they pose the potential to put the entire financial system at risk. If "market makers" are allowed to break rules, including the creation of millions of fake shares, they are given the power to destroy
