None of this tech nerdery means a whole lot without "skin in the game." First, ensure that we have real liability and/or regulation in place, similar to the FDA and such, and THEN begin to work on solutions. I'm certain answers will reveal themselves much quicker.
- wmf 4y agoThere's a lot of debate about liability right now in the context of section 230 and it's not obvious to me that more liability will create better outcomes. It could just as easily lead to either an unmoderated digital hellscape or all social media being shut down.
- NateEag 4y agoThat unmoderated hellscape sounds bad, but I see no reason to think all social media being shut down would be such a terrible outcome.
- jrm4 4y agoI see what you mean but not because it would be "shut down," it would reform itself in a grassroots way. Messier, but perhaps better in the long run?
