> Clearly Facebook has demonstrated that regulation is required. it's not so clear to me that it's "required". and in fact, I think that detail will be an enormous part of the discussion we get to listen to now. what's certainly apparent though, is that these systems aren't helping us in the way they are currently structured. it may wind up being the case that our governments use regulation to address the issue, but I am not sure it will solve the larger problem of individuals not having the education (& willpower?) to protect themselves from the sorts of disadvantageous relationships that FANG is willing to engage in with them.
