1. One observer has said that the American legal system should evaluate social media companies based on
FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG F
how ―they affect us as citizens, not only [on how] they affect us as consumers.‖ What is your opinion of t
G FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG
his statement? FG
Solution
The person who made this statement clearly sees a ―citizen‖ as having different motivations and concerns t
FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG
han a ―consumer.‖ Presumably, a citizen is mostly concerned with the good of society as a whole, and ther

efore would be open to the idea of government regulation that restricted thenegative influence of social
FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG
media, regardless of the First Amendment. A consumer, by contrast, would be primarily concerned with h

aving a marketplace that offers the widest possible varieties of freedom (of choice, of speech, etc.) and w
FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG
ould for that reason be opposed to government regulation of social media. There is, however, an argume
FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG FG
