Episode notes

Social media doesn't have to work the way it does now. An analogy from American history illustrates this. In the past, leaded petrol and paint were used, but it was discovered that lead exposure is harmful to the brain, especially in children. Ordinary moms came together and fought to ban the specific component causing harm, not the entire product. Their efforts paid off, resulting in an increase in children's IQ. This model can be applied to social media - identifying and removing harmful components while retaining the good aspects.
