This feels like using a computer is inherently unsafe.

On the plus side, once we outlaw them we'll shut down the ability for conspiratorial thinking to spread easily and the world will slowly heal from the last couple of decades (the previous one in particular).

Hooray! We're finally doing something about the harms of social media. Smash your computer today!

Safety meeting. Nobody works, nobody gets hurt.
Ah yes, it’s the conspiratorial thinking dividing society,

not humans being humans,

not the people at the highest echelons of society being corrupt (Epstein called).

It’s the people trying to piece that evil together so they know what to tell their kids - they’re the problem.

Sure.

I think we're only a few decades away from these things being said unironically.
It's already here, mobile OSes are just computers with ton of guardrails and you can't do whatever you want with it, for the sake of security. I mean we almost got an Android where you can't install the APK you want.
Where's that guy with the ButlerianJihad username when you need him?
