Really? You don’t have a problem with an app that causes 1% of teens that use it to develop suicidal thoughts? By the way, according to the leaked study these teens directly attributed their suicidal ideation to Instagram.
- axguscbklp 5y agoYes, I do not have any problem with it whatsoever. There are probably plenty of books that also cause some percentage of people to develop suicidal thoughts, but I do not want to start banning those books.
- w0m 5y agoThis is the kicker I think. Facebook scales 'keeping up with the Jones' up and make it easier. But that's been a common trope since (google search... 1920ish). What Facebook's doing isn't new; it's simply Easier. When you say, '1% develop suicidal thoughts' - Is that causation or correlation? Maybe I'm missing something; but this seems somewhat like 'biggest target' to me as the world had shrunk. https://health.ucdavis.edu/health-news/newsroom/even-before-covid-19-pandemic-youth-suicide-already-at-record-high/2021/04 https://health.ucdavis.edu/health-news/newsroom/even-before-...
