Honestly, I’m okay with holding companies responsible for the results of systems they set up. That it occurs in several steps with disparate actors at each point does nothing to absolve them of the overall effect. And with regard to the short time since publication, I don’t think the clock starts when there’s negative PR about an issue, nor when they are informed about an issue. The clock starts at the point where, if the system were well-run, they would have become aware of the issue. That is, neither ignoring an issue nor cultivating silos of ignorance should garner any sympathy.
