You know, that's a pretty despicable attitude. The coroner's judgement (which I'm presuming we will see in more detail soon) basically calls attention to the fact that social media algorithms (which are designed to maximize engagement) drive users to more extreme content. To a vulnerable young person who seeks information on depression, the algorithms then direct them to more similar, and more extreme content about depression, including pro-suicide sites. The evidence given by Meta and Pinterest executives confirms this. They admitted in court that their algorithms were showing young people content they should not have.
