Social media ain’t the same breed though. They’re advertising platforms who don’t give a shit about anyone or anything but money. And they make more than companies generating real value. TikTok shows misogyny and violence within half an hour and TikTok is totally fine showing this for as long as they make money with it. Just like Insta and the rest. Back then with MySpace, etc the algorithms weren’t exactly great at keeping us addicted. At some point we simply logged off and didn’t come back. It’s not the same thing
I actually totally agree with this; I just think the solution is holding these companies to account rather than forcing all users to submit very personal identification.
Yeah, I’d love to see that too. I just see way too little of that happening. By the time they get regulated or held accountable the damage has been done and all they need to do is pay a fine that’s smaller than what they made. Malicious compliance la dee da. In California I think literally is a law that lets companies can buy their way out of anything violation of the law. Basically legalized corruption I guess
