They should all be banned

  Not in a free society, they shouldn't. And the US has, at least for the moment, a semblance of a free society.

    The “this is a free country” argument is flawed and tired. You must be 21 to legally consume alcohol. You must have a license to drive a car. You can’t drive faster than the speed limit on a road. Meth and cocaine are illegal. Children must attend school. Abortions are illegal (after X weeks). Et al. Study after study has made clear the harm social media brings not only to children, but all who use it. The psychological “gaming” that goes into every little detail of these apps should be enough to make the average person sick. “Bad faith” doesn’t begin to describe the MO of TikTok and others. We’re not even touching the harvesting and selling of people’s data that these platforms heavily rely upon for revenue.
