Here’s an analogy: If a radio station or TV channel taught a child to cut themselves, self-harm, or drink toilet water, that broadcaster would be held accountable.
So how can we allow social media platforms to escape responsibility? Children are dying.
- ty6853 1y agoThe problem isn't that a child knows how to cut themselves, it's that they lack guidance in life teaching them why that is a dumb idea, or if too young to learn that, supervising them so that they don't.
- akoboldfrying 1y agoI think this viewpoint is not to be dismissed, but I think a way to improve the analogy would be: What if the programs that that TV channel showed were not custom-built by the channel itself, but rather created on-the-fly by millions of anonymous people?
