I think they would do better to solve the business model at the genesis of the issue. The Attention economy brought the conspiracy and outrage machine to each of our phones. There's an addict in my pocket. We need the political willpower to say "Yea you are a rich money making company, but a harm for X, Y reasons, and therefore this is the new regulation for companies profiting on an attention based model." There will be fallout, solutions require it, we must have courage and stop putting companies and money on a pedestal above people.

So true. It's gonna take an external crisis to unite these states. I'm praying for vegan aliens.
