Your comment is literally the slippery slope fallacy in action.
A world without social media algorithmic feeds would be extremely tolerable and even better for the vast majority of people in the world.
A world without semiconductors would not be.
Also, a ban on semiconductors is not possible while one on algorithmic For You feeds isn’t just possible but would be fairly trivial requiring only the passage of a handful of bills across a handful of major countries, before it spread across the world.
- dangus 3y agoYes I know, the slippery slope was the idea. I was being satirical about the person I responded to, because their idea of an outright ban of personalized content is an incredible overreach. I also disagree that legislation is just that easy. Many proposed laws to restrict social media are unconstitutional under the 1st amendment. And to those who dislike algorithmic feeds I say “speak for yourself.” Banning them would be like banning ESPN because sports are a waste of of time.
