How to Regulate Social Media
A Third Way Between Allowing Anything and Making Social Media into Editors
I believe social media today is responsible for a large number of problems that us humans face. It is negatively affecting politics, our democracy, free speech and even dating and the relationship between genders as well as our own happiness.
The social ills of social media deserves its own article. Because it is a bit more of a technology oriented question I wrote about this on my “Erik Explores” Substack which has a stronger technology focus. Erik Examines was always meant to be more about history, economics, politics. The former was supposed to have a more geek focus such as about anything from rocket engines, to programming languages to how nuclear reactors work.
Sometimes I duplicate articles but it becomes a hassle to remember to add the same updates multiple places. Instead I invite you to visit my other substack. It is free.
