    No. But I would also hope we’re better than China. There are tools other than a sledgehammer to get social media companies to take action against these bot farms and fake news articles.

    This is certainly an option, but I don’t think it’s a very good one.

    For example, if the algorithm is the problem, let’s require transparency or place restrictions on how algorithms can select content for users.

      Tiktok offered to do everything people are suggesting with project Texas. It would have made them the most transparent social media company in the US…

      So of course Congress goes pfft… nah. We still want you to sell, we don’t want transparency, we want to control the narrative.
