You can cite all the hypothetical scenarios you can muster, but the fact that people are acting in a collaborative manner to gather information speaks against all that you've suggested.
No one said "all". "all" is not required. Only "some". Likewise there is no degree of cooperation required for multiple people for multiple reasons to spread lies and rumors and fear. The fact a few people are collaborating doesn't mean that everyone is being honest, the actions of one have no bearing on the actions, motivations, or intentions of "everyone". Just because a few people have a view point doesn't mean that's the only view point. Just because a few people have a theory doesn't mean it's the right theory. Presumption of innocence is irrelevant here.
Let me help you remember more;

Oh look. Consistency. Imagine that.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.
