Technology does amplify problems, yes. But it also amplifies the solutions. If your problem didn't have a decent solution in the first place, then yes, you will just have a bigger problem. I'm not sure how this is something directly related to Facebook. I think misinformation spread has been a problem that was amplified with the easier access to the information in general. Maybe this is like the problem of modern warfare. Modern bombs tend to affect people en masse (citation needed, yes, please bear with me) and with nuclear weapons, the problem of civilians getting hurt/killed got amplified. The problem was (hopefully) solved by understanding the consequences of using extreme force over time, especially the chain reaction that can be triggered. What I'm trying to say is, maybe, we need to create a solution which we can "amplify" with the technology, and that is not just Facebook's responsibility. However, them being the "nuclear weapon" of the social media, yes, they do share the burden.
