1. One2observer2has2said2that2the2American2legal2system2should2evaluate2social2media2companies2based2o
n2how2―they2affect2us2as2citizens,2not2only2[on2how]2they2affect2us2as2consumers.‖2What2is2your2opinion2
of2this2statement?

herefore2would2be2open2to2the2idea2of2government2regulation2that2restricted2the2negative2influence2of2so
cial2media,2regardless2of2the2First2Amendment.2A2consumer,2by2contrast,2would2be2primarily2concerned2
with2having2a2marketplace2that2offers2the2widest2possible2varieties2of2freedom2(of2choice,2of2speech,2etc.
)2and2would2for2that2reason2be2opposed2to2government2regulation2of2social2media.2There2is,2however,2an
2argument2to2be2made2that2the2citizens2that2make2up2a2society2benefit2when2the2marketplace2of2ideas—

whether2they2are2subjectively
―positive‖2or2―negative‖—is2allowed2to2flourish2in2the2absence2of2government2regulation.
