Adapting the Law to theOnline Environment
b b b b b b




1. One observer has said that the American legal system should evaluate social media companies based on how
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




―they affect us as citizens, not only [on how] they affect us as consumers.‖ What is your opinion of this
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




statement? b




Solution
The person who made this statement clearly sees a ―citizen‖ as having different motivations and concerns than a
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




―consumer.‖ Presumably, a citizen is mostly concerned with the good of society as a whole, and therefore would
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




be open to the idea of government regulation that restricted thenegative influence of social media, regardless
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




of the First Amendment. A consumer, by contrast, would be primarily concerned with having a marketplace
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




that offers the widest possible varieties of freedom (of choice, of speech, etc.) and would for that reason be
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




opposed to government regulation of social media. There is, however, an argument to be made that the
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




citizens that make up a society benefit when the marketplace of ideas—whether they are subjectively
b b b b b b b b b b b b b b b




―positive‖ or ―negative‖—is allowed to flourish in the absence of government regulation.

2. Tim Cook, Apple‘s chief operating officer, has suggested that the United States Congress shouldpass a law

limiting the ability of Apple and other tech countries to keep consumer data private. Why would a business

executive make such a request?
