Adapting the Law to the Online Environment
gh gh gh gh gh gh
1. One observer has said that the American legal system should evaluate social media companies
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
based on how ―they affect us as citizens, not only [on how] they affect us as consumers.‖ What is
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
your opinion of this statement?
gh gh gh gh gh
Solution
The person who made this statement clearly sees a ―citizen‖ as having different motivations and
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
concerns than a ―consumer.‖ Presumably, a citizen is mostly concerned with the good of society as a
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
whole, and therefore would be open to the idea of government regulation that restricted thenegative
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh h
g
influence of social media, regardless of the First Amendment. A consumer, by contrast, would be
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
primarily concerned with having a marketplace that offers the widest possible varieties of freedom
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
(of choice, of speech, etc.) and would for that reason be opposed to government regulation of
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
social media. There is, however, an argument to be made that the citizens that make up a society
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
benefit when the marketplace of ideas—whether they are subjectively
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
―positive‖ or ―negative‖—is allowed to flourish in the absence of government regulation.
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
2. Tim Cook, Apple‘s chief operating officer, has suggested that the United States Congress shouldpass
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh h
g
a law limiting the ability of Apple and other tech countries to keep consumer data private. Why
gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh gh
would a business executive make such a request?
