Eh, I care less about blame and more about what is to be done about the situation. I don't think we can expect the platforms to fix issues with consumer behavior, both because they aren't incentivized to and because they immediately lose market share to less scrupulous actors. The government needs to act to break coordination problems, much like they did to reduce smoking


That’s why I reject the diffusion of responsibility called for in that post. “We” didn’t do this, a few executives at certain big companies did, and the way to fix it is by removing their ability to do so unilaterally without consequences.
